Hi,

i hope i have understood your problem correctly:

There's a JavaScript object called "opener". Using this object you can
reference elements in the window which has opened your pop-up.

Here's a small tutorial i googled up quickly:

|
| I have looked at the existing Widgets and attempted (unsuccessfully)
| to code my own. I created a widget called CmsRfsFileWidget, a "real
| file system" equivalent to (and based on) the CmsVfsFileWidget.
|
| My problem is I am unable to create a "real file system" version of
| tree_files.jsp. As a first step, I would like to list several file
| names  in the JSP and if a user clicks on a name, OpenCMS will copy
| that name to the parent field.
|
| Sounds simple enough, but I cannot see how to adapt a copy of
| tree_files.jsp for that purpose. My problem is, I don't understand how
| the existing tree_files.jsp will write a name to the parent field.
|
| Is it possible to use CmsTree for "real files"? If not, is it possible
| to create JavaScript so that if a name is clicked that value is
| written to the parent field?
|
| Thank you.
|
| Regards Brett
