Hi Anthony, according to Fabian, accessing (and using) native browser-windows is a feature qooxdoo should support eventually.
At the moment it works insofar as filling a second window with qooxdoo ui- elements from the main window seems to work. Only the event-manager has some problems with additional windows when attaching events to the created elements. see: http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1529 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.javascript.qooxdoo.devel/17867 The bug report contains my test-class and the mailing-list thread documents the steps of my search in the qooxdoo code.
