Can I use ORBEON to access parent control?

Hi,

Can I use ORBEON to access parent control? For example, I want to use child window to select some value and set this value to parent coltrol.

use ORBEON.xforms.Document.setValue() can set value, but how can i use ORBEON to set parent control some value the same way?

Or where to find ORBEON reference?

appreciate, Jack

Not sure what you mean by "parent control"?

use javascript to open new window and in this window to access parent window's control.

use the new window to select some value and set the selected value to parent window' control.

or another way can achieve this?

you could use the xxforms:dialog to open a "new" window:

http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/reference-xforms-2#dialog

This has the benefit that the dialog is part of the "parent" page so
that the dialog controls and the "parent" instances are accessible at
the same time.
