Now, I'd like to have a button in the form, which when clicked would create an extra window with a detailed list of the SELECTED object of class A.

form: WOForm {
        action = yourAction;
        target = "newNiceLittleWindow";
}


To me this should be a button ("detail of selected"), so that I have a chance to get the current state of the selection. Furthermore the corresponding method should return "null" (so that the content of the window does not change).

No, do not return null but the content of the new detail-page. This will just be displayed in your newNiceLittleWindow;


Now I also want another (new) window to open up; to achieve that my idea was to add to the BODY onload action a small call to "window.open(someURL, "_blank", "...")" calling a method that would return the detail of the selected object. I guess I have to use WOActionURL to generate the URL used by window.open ... ?

Don’t do that. That would always be called. Then you’d have to add a WOConditional for the body-tag and the horror begins :)

A last question, which indeed is more HTML related : Indeed I'm using a wrapper component for having a consistent layout over all the pages of the application. This makes it complicated for me to add on demand a "onload" javascript to the BODY element... Is there a more convenient place I can place that one ?

Dont use onLoad. Just put the JavaScipt where (your enclosed WOComponent-page) it is needed, and it will run when the Browser parses it.

        atze
