Answer : ASP.NET,Javascript,Ajax: How to get a string from window.showModalDialog

When you call showModalDialog you do this:

var oReturnValue = showModalDialog(....);

Within showModalDialog, assuming your textboxes have IDs of "txtForename" and "txtSurname":

function terminate()
{
 var o = new Object();
 o.forename = document.getElementById("txtForename").value;
 o.surname = document.getElementById("txtSurname").value;
 window.returnValue = o;
}
