open dialog with window.showModalDialog i n ops

Hi,
    I want to use 'window.showModalDialog' to opening a model dialog, then I have a problem: How can I pass xforms instance between 'main page' and 'dialog page'?
    This is like xxforms:dialog, but this method have a problem: the main page and dialog page is in same page, so the page is more big, so I want to use 'window.showModalDialog'.
    The Main page is like that:
<head>
<xforms:model>
  <xforms:instance id=”init”></xforms:instance>

<xforms:instance id=”result”></xforms:instance>

  <xxfroms:dialog-submission id=”dialog1”
    ref=”instance(‘init’)/ data”
    replace=”instance”
    instance=”instance(‘result’)/data”
    action=”/dialog”/>
</xforms:model>
</head>
<body>
<xforms:trigger>
  <xforms:label>Show Dialog</xforms:label>
  <xforms:action ev:event=”DOMActitive”>
   <xxforms:xx-dialog type="modal-dialog" dialog-submission=”dialog1”/>
  </xforms:action>
</xforms:trigger>
</body>

The Dialog Page is like that:
<head>
<xforms:model>
  <xforms:instance id=”dialog-instance”></xforms:instance>
</xforms:model>
</head>
<body>
<xforms:trigger>
  <xforms:label>Close Dialog</xforms:label>
  <xforms:action ev:event=”DOMActitive”>
   <xxforms:script>
    window.result = xxforms:instance(‘dialog-instance’);
    window.close();
   </xxforms:script>
  </xforms:action>
</xforms:trigger>
</body>

See a related post here:

Obviously you can't use what you have here:

<xxforms:xx-dialog type="modal-dialog"
dialog-submission="dialog1"/>

There is no such thing in Orbeon Forms at the moment. If you want to
do something like this, you will have to use JavaScript. You can use
the xxforms:script action to run script, e.g.:

<xxforms:script>
doSomethingInJavaScript();
window.showModalDialog();
</xxforms:script>

Note that window.showModalDialog() is completely different from the
current implementation of xxforms:dialog. The former in fact opens a
new browser window (albeit modal), and the latter just shows a new
part of the HTML page, in the same HTML DOM, which was previously
hidden. So xxforms:dialog currently does not suffer from the issue of
sharing information with the calling page, since it is running in fact
in the same page.
