Typically, this requires that you use frames, and write JavaScript functions to submit forms or change location properties. We've been doing this in applications since Netscape 2! None of this has anything to do with CF, really. CF simply generates text in response to HTTP requests. It can't have any communication with the client other than through HTTP, which is very limited and simple. The only way CF can get data from JavaScript is the same way it gets any other data - as a result of an HTTP request from the browser.
