showModalDialog opens page into a new window after posting

[dpdoug]

I'm calling this showModalDialog from the main form to confirm with the use that certain values are correct. When I do a postback to save the values to a variables, instead of closing like it should, it opens the confirm.aspx page in a new full-sized window.

calling page (orders.aspx):

	at = Form1.chkAutoOffrent.checked;
	var PopupWindow=null;
	var opt = 'dialogWidth:350px; dialogHeight:230px; center:yes; scroll:no; status:no';
	window.showModalDialog('confirm.aspx?auto='+at, '',opt);

confirm.aspx:

<script language="javascript">
<!--
	function closeMe(){
		self.close();
}
//-->
</script>

Is there any way to avoid this from happening?

And on top of this it doesn't fire the code. I have already thought of using an iframe in an html page, and opening the aspx page inside the iframe, but I need to pass an argument on the QueryString:

'confirm.aspx?auto='+at

Modal dialogs are supposed to return data only to opener window. Any GET/POST to server opens new window.

What about IFRAME inside modal dialog?
