Hi David
Thanks for the reply. You are right that we can save the window variable
in an array and that works just fine. However, the problem is
maintaining this information across requests.
ie. I can open the window on 1 page and click on the "close window" link
a few requests later.
Is there a way to keep the windowList across requests? If so, that would
solve the problem. I was trying to searlize the object and store it as a
cookie to get around this.
Thanks
Suneet
