Cool. Thanks again, Jeff.
Also, could you do open up java script window with a commandLink? Cos,
no onClick?
Here is the code am using in the outputLink,
<h:outputLink id="lookup" onclick="openWindow('lookup.faces',
'lookup', 45, 100, 750, 50); return false;">
<h:outputText value="Lookup"/>
</h:outputLink>
But no action...So back to the commandLink to make it work.
TIA.

Gladly, this is not true. Just use the target attribute. You can even
make a commandButton open in a new window, by wrapping it in a
commandLink. Here's some working code from my actual application:
<h:commandLink id="showReportButton"
action="#{trialBalanceForm.prepareReport}" target="_blank">
<h:commandButton value="Create Report" styleClass="styleFont
styleLabel"/>
</h:commandLink>

Hi,
I need the best of command link and output link...ie execute an
action and open a window.
AFAIK, the outputLink can open a new window on click but can't
support actions. And the commandLink on the other hand
can support actions but can't open windows.
What I really need is both. So, when u click a link it executes an
operation on a managed bean and the result of that is
included in the new window.
Much appreciated, TIA.
