G'day
One can use ColdFusion.Window.getWindowObject(name) to get the object
relating to a <cfwindow>, provided one knows the name. Fair enough.
What I'm trying to work out is from inside a <cfwindow>, is there a
built-in way of saying (something like) ColdFusion.Window.getCurrentWindow.
I can't see anything exposed by <cfwindow> that actually identifies the
name or the object-itself of the current window to itself (if that makes
sense). I can pass the window's name into it on its source URL, but I
would have thought the window already know who it is, so I should just be
able to ask. I know I can extract the info by hacking about in the DOM,
but I would have thought there'd be a simpler way than that..?
Cheers for any thoughts.

I guess the cfwindow is doing bound to something to get content.
When the cfwindow makes it's post or get this value exists url._cf_containerId
(along with some others). Turn on ajax debugging in the cfadmin and pass
cfdebug=1 in the page you are working on, and you'll get a JS debugging window
inline.
