In my Page1.aspx, i have a one button.when I press the button page2.aspx will open as a separate small window(using javascript "window.open('page2.aspx')").
My scenario is when page2.aspx(small window) is opened ,page1.aspx never allow to access(if i try to click page1.aspx not allowed).if i closed pasge2.aspx(small window) then only page1.aspx should able to access.at a time only one page should be active.

Solution 2

Via Jquery it's easier to do,but I am not sure how it is possible using javascript.A possible solution is to put the child window contents in a div on parent page itself and make that div visible true when button is clicked.When div opens find all the contents of the page and disable them.

show modal dialog is problematic when using google chrome. It neither disables parent window and allows multiple popup of same child window too
