Want to be able to close the Modal Popup Screen when you click on it
I have a modal popup expander and a panel inside the update panel. I have a Close button that I am associating with CancelControlId. However, I would like to be able to click outside of my modal / panel to close the panel. (instead of a close button).
I tried a couple of things and click on the plugin. Nothing seems to help. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank.

Here is a link to an example that adds to the background onclick
to close the modal:

Copied key bits here for reference:
function pageLoad() {
var mpe = $find("MPE");
mpe.add_shown(onShown);
}
function onShown() {
var background = $find("MPE")._backgroundElement;
background.onclick = function() { $find("MPE").hide(); }
}
<AjaxToolKit:ModalPopupExtender ID="mdlPopup" BehaviorID="MPE" runat="server"
TargetControlID="btnShowPopup" PopupControlID="pnlPopup"
CancelControlID="btnClose" BackgroundCssClass="modalBackground" />

write a dynamically generated script that is added in my example when the modal popup expander is loaded. Note. To bind this event handler to the ModalPopupExtender.OnLoad event, you need to add a link (in the client code, you can add "OnLoad =" mpeExample_Load "to your ModalPopupExtender tag).
protected void mpeExample_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this, this.GetType(),
"hideModalPopupViaClient", String.Format(@"function hideModalPopupViaClient() {
{
var modalPopupBehavior = $find('{0}');
if (modalPopupBehavior) modalPopupBehavior.hide();}}",
mpeExample.ClientID), true);
ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this, this.GetType(), "pageLoad", String.Format(@"function pageLoad() {
{
var backgroundElement = $get('{0}_backgroundElement');
if (backgroundElement) $addHandler(backgroundElement, 'click', hideModalPopupViaClient);
}}",
mpeExample.ClientID), true);}

I had to do this so that I could click the actual popup without closing it, since I have functional user controls like tab sections and text boxes in the popup.
<script type="text/javascript">
//Hide Doc Center when clicking outside
function pageLoad(sender, args) {
if (!args.get_isPartialLoad()) {
$addHandler($find("MPE")._backgroundElement, "click", closePopup);
}
}
function closePopup(e) {
$find("MPE").hide();
}
//End
</script>
Now, just make sure your BehaviorID in your actual ModelPopupExtender matches the tag above. For example:
<ajaxToolkit:ModalPopupExtender ID="Popup" runat="server" PopupControlID="Container" BehaviorID="MPE" TargetControlID="fakeTargetControl" BackgroundCssClass="modalBackground" CancelControlID="btnCancel" />
Basically, I think this just handles the 'click' event _backgroundElement attr of the modal popup, and on that event the closePopup () function is executed.
