Javascript to lotusscript in read mode in Notes client?

In R5 Notes client, JavaScript could set a field value on a document in read mode, call the click method of a button, and the LotusScript code on the button could read the value that JavaScript set.

In ND6 Notes client, JavaScript can set field values only in edit mode(which is probably more appropriate) - problem is - now is there any way in ND6 to pass a string from java scrip to LotusScript?

Since the javascript window.open doesn’t function well (problems with form headers, mode, new window properties, full screen, …etc.) - that isn’t a good option - so back to passing a value from javascrip - so lotusscript can open a new window in the Notes client.

Any suggestions on a way to pass a value?

thanks,

Berkley

resolved with further review - replaced with a better method…using note:// URL - links rather than passing UNIDs from JavaScript to LotusScript - works better(faster) with new method
