I see. So if I'm understanding you correctly, you want to:
- click "OK" in the popup window, which will map values back to the
original page's form
- submit the form.
If that's true, you can do this in your onPopupDone, assuming your
netui:form has tagId="myform":
function myPopupDone(map)
{
Netui_OnPopupDone(map); // delegate to the base field mapper
document.getElementById(lookupIdByTagId("myform")).submit();
}
Let me know what you think...
