I tried your suggestions...I broke out the steps...

strRedirectURL = DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.NavigateURL(TabId, "ProviderOptions_List")
>>>> strRedirectURL = "http://localhost/TestPage/tabid/82/ct..."

strRedirectURL = UrlUtils.PopUpUrl(strRedirectURL, Me, PortalSettings, True, False)
>>>> strRedirectURL = dnnModal.show('http://localhost/TestPage/tabid/82/ctl/ProviderOptions_List/Default.aspx?popUp=true',/*showReturn*/true,550,950,true,'')

Me.cmdTrainings.Attributes.Add("onclick", "return " & strRedirectURL)
>>>>> Result: Popup appears with a blank page, nothing loads.

O...M...G... I swear I've done exactly what you wrote.  But for some reason....NOW it works.  I've been staring at this code for two days banging my head and I have no clue what I was doing differently then what you wrote, but I must have done something different otherwise it would have worked for me long ago.

Thank you for your help!!!

P.S. I have 1 final question about Popups though... Can a popup pass back data to the webpage that called it?

ie: User goes to the "Edit" page (Using the MANAGE button) which by default creates a new record for the user to work with. While populating the new record, they click a button that opens a popup which allows them to make changes to a list which is stored in the same record. (Utilizing the DualList control). When the user finishs changing the list, they click a save button which closes the popup. How, how do I get the list changed inside the popup, back into my Edit webpage so I can save it into the record... or can't I? Is there a "global" type of memory area reachable by all pages?

Forgive me if I seem ignorant about this.  I am a VB.Net programmer and have programmed in ASP but rarely.  But now we are looking to update some in-house software to ASP and I am trying to figure out how to do some of the same things that the original windows-based apps I designed can do, but in web format.

Thank you for all your help!

Wes, one last question if you don't mind...

There is a situation where I would like to use a Popup, but using Server Redirect.  I tried the code below, but it doesn't work... can you advise?

strRedirectURL = EditUrl("ProviderOptions_List")
strRedirectURL = UrlUtils.PopUpUrl(strRedirectURL, Me, PortalSettings, False, True)
Response.Redirect(strRedirectURL)

After executing EditUrl, strRedirectURL has a value of... (Note: String below is prefixed with JavaScript and a colon)
dnnModal.show('http://localhost:1646/TestPage/tabid/82/ctl/ProviderOptions_List/mid/430/Default.aspx?popUp=true',/*showReturn*/false,550,950,true,'')

After executing UrlUtils.PopUpUrl, strRedirectURL has a value of... (Note: String below is prefixed with JavaScript and a colon)
dnnModal.show('http://localhost:1646/TestPage/tabid/82/ctl/ProviderOptions_List/mid/430/Default.aspx?popUp=true',/*showReturn*/false,550,950,true,'')&popUp=true

I tried executing Response.Redirect on both values, didn't work.  I don't know what the proper format is for a Response.Redirect Popup method.

AS far as Im aware thats about the only way it can be done with limitations of the current popup implementation.

Sadly - the popup system is up there with the poorest thought out elements of dnn 600.

It lacks a cohesive design methodology in its current form - and its lack of a state mechanism means that it does things like a page refresh when the user just wants to cancel the popup window.

That coupled with - no popup support out of the box for custom rego/login modules is a joke - and sadly dont hold your breath for any changes.
