Yes, that works well. That method is similar to index.jsp and popup.jsp in Chapter 12 of "Core JavaServer Faces" in that the parameters are passed as request parameters in the URL. The popup JSP can then access the values using param.xxx and param.yyy.
Another method outlined in that chapter is supposed to use JSF to pass the parameters to the popup window via the normal managed bean method, so the popup window just references the managed bean and not explicit request parameter values. That seems like a more JSF-oriented approach. Unfortunately, it doesn't work as written, and I'm curious whether anyone has gotten it to work. (This example is given in index2.jsp and popup2.jsp in Chapter 12 of the book.) - Brendan -----Original Message----- From: Slawek [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 22, 2005 4:33 AM To: MyFaces Discussion Subject: Re: RE : commandLink and onClick javascript popup window problem i have made it in #2 way - that was described in my last post it works great (and opens in browser window:P ) Sławek Sobótka > Someone has made it (the onclick popup) !
