Send instance to new window

ChrisSpeare
I want to post my instance to a popup window - to process the xml currently being viewed.  I tried using an xforms:load inside a trigger, however get a 'Client side error'.

What is the code to open a new window, based on an instance value, passing in another instance?

An xforms:load will load a link, so this will do a HTTP GET. You can't
use an xforms:load to post an instance to another page. For this
you'll need an xforms:submission, which you can trigger with an
xforms:send. Then on the xforms:submission element you can use the
xxforms:target attribute to set which window is to be used. This works
just like the "target" attribute in HTML. See:

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

Depending on the case, you might find that using an xxforms:dialog
works better than opening a browser pop-up window.
