> A popup is currently reached via a nested action, however, you can't pass a FormBean (and more importantly, its values) from a parent action to the nested action for use in the popup.  An example of how you may want to use this would be:
> 	>       1) parent form/page has a "To" text field in a form.
> 	>       2) I type in "hello.world@xyz.abc"
> 	>       3) click the button (netui:button popup=true) to trigger the popup in the parent page
> 	>       4) popup has its own form/page that has a "To" text field.
> 	>       5) When the popup renders, the popups "To" field should be prepopulated with the "hello .world@xyz.abc" value.
> You can currently pass the values of a popup to the parent, thus you should be able to go the other way (pass the parent values to the popup) with a given framework way other than constructing some javascript to do this in a custom manner.  One reason why this probably doesn't currently work, is when you click the netui:button it doesn't submit the parent form, thus the form and values don't get persisted for use by the popup.
> This is currently a very limiting shortcoming of using popups.
