I was wondering about something very similar. I want an edit box to have
button that pops up a choice list window. (Like Webmin in Linux). Shoudl I
stay within the Jetspeed container or just handle this with a servlet.

For your second question see the thread "Why no 1.3a3?"

Subject: popup a new layout


Hi,

In my Jetspeed portal (v 1.3a2) I'm trying to figure out a way to popup a
new window (using javascript window.open) that will have a layout
different from the default portal layout.  I'm pretty familiar with the
hierarchy of layout, navigations, controllers, controls, porlets etc.  So
would I go about doing this by creating a new screen template or a new
layout template?  It seems that I would just create a new layout and link
to it, though I'm not sure how to form the link such that Jetspeed will
know to use my popup.vm instead of the default.vm.  Is my question too
ambiguous?

What I'm basically trying to do is popup and edit portlet, but I want to
do it within the context of Jetspeed rather than writing a Turbine action
or a whole separate servlet.  Please advise me.

One other thing--there seem to be a lot of new features in version 1.3a3.
What's the timeframe for its release, and is it a waste of time to develop
on version 1.3a2?

Thanks for your time,
Seth Weiner
