Hi Minal,
Your approach is good to handle this problem. But i think as
per your suggest comment why dont you make it as like FaceBook where user
can comment his answer instead of opening new windows. Let the user *
Answer* keep it as it is for reviewer. give one button, on clicking on that
button create TextArea below where he can write his part. Give one update
button for *USER* where he can update his answer and it is reflected back
to reviewer. I think so...
Thanks
