Does ClientScriptmanager work when called in partial postback?

Question

I would like to close the browser window when the ASP.NET operation was successful. The code below is triggered by a button located in the Ajax UpdatePanel.

Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(typeof(LeaveApproval), "ShowSuccess", "<script language=javascript>window.opener=self; self.close();</script>"); 

However, this code has no effect. The window is not closed. When I enter javascript in the URL bar of my browser, it works fine, so I assume this is due to using ClientScriptManager along with Ajax.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

This Scott Kluppel link helped me solve the problem ...

Rather, use ...

 ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript 

instead

 Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock.
