does anyone know how to show the new list element form on button click, that I have on my custom aspx page? Like when you have a sharepoint list and you click on "add item" and a new element form loads up in a new dialog window? I need the same thing to happen when I click on my button. I know how to do that in Sharepoint Designer, but I need to do it programmatically in visual studio. I assume Javascript must be involved in some way and I am terrible with it. Thaks in advance!
One more question - do you know of a way to refresh the original page, the one that has the button, upon closing of the dialog window? Here is the scenario:
- I press the button,
- it opens the dialog window,
- I add an element to a Sharepoint list via it,
- I close the dialog window,
- I need the original page refreshed, so it repopulates the
DropDownList and adds the title of this new list item to it.
