Accessing JavaScript functions in other windows

[Raghuram Kanadam <Su...@infosys.com>]

Seems that there is a way after all :) Please ignore this if you guys already know this or feel that this shud be on a HTML users list.
	
	We could use the fact that properties could be added to a class at runtime, so heres the code

document.customFunction = myCustomFunction;

function myCustomFunction (arg1, arg2, ...)
	{
	//my dumb code
	}

somewhere in eternity...
	window.open ('...', 'win2');





again in win2 somewhere close to eternity...
	var parent = window.opener; //this wud be window1, use your own manipulations to get to this window, the parent

	parent.document.customFunction (arg1_1, arg2_1, ...);

Works in IE6+ and NS6+. Don't have a previous release.

Waitin' for the brickbats,
:)

In the application I'm working on, I actually don't create the map in the 
JSP or the action, I use a getter method in my form bean that constructs 
the map and returns it.  It's very nice and easy, just create the getter 
method, specify the bean name and property in the link tag, and there ya 
go.  I'm sure there are some cases where this wouldn't be the ideal 
solution, but for what I've done, it works wonderfully.
Does this sound like a good way of doing this to everybody else?

Think of a case where you have a List of people and you wanted to 
create a link for each person.  I would have to create n# of Maps in 
the Action.  If it was done in something like a forEach loop this could 
be done all at once.  Not sure how good of an example this is :)
