Check, if you are within a modal dialog

Development, SharePoint

By now, you probably know that the modal framework from SharePoint 2010 is a great thing 🙂

In case you need to find out if the context is within a modal dialog, you can query for the URL parameter “IsDlg”.

if (Page.Request["IsDlg"] != null)
{
   // within a modal dialog
}
else
{
   // not within a modal dialog
}
