PopupWindow - transfer data from parent window to child window
I would like to transfer some data from parent window to child window
when user clicks on the button.
I create popup window from a custom component renderer
using
button.setOnclick("javascript:doPopup(xyz.jsp)
This custom component (parent window)has some information which needs to be displayed on the pop up when user clicks on it.
Is there any state information transferred to the child window from
parent window? like faces context ?
The issue is, I have multiple instances of this custom component and
based on the button click need to display the relavent 'details'(on a pop up window). These relevant details are in the custom component.
thanks

Thanks, but how do I pass information from .js to .jsp
my .js looks like this
function doPopup(list) {
win3 = window.open('details.jsf, '', "width=320,height=210,scrollbars=yes resizable=yes");
win3.focus();
}
How do I access this list in details.jsf?

Infact these messages are list of FacesMessages.I need to display these messages in a popup with some color, image etc., based on the Error Status (Fatal, Error, Info).-K

I am not sure if this is useful. But here I go.
1) You can have a div block which is hidden on your parent page which encloses your h:messages tag.
2) on your pop up, onload you can call a javascript method in which you would call something like window.opener.document.getElementById('div_block_id').innerHTML and set this value in a div block in the pop up.
