Working between two stacks

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Glen,

Have a look at the dialogData property:
It allows exactly what you want: exchange data between 2 stacks (one  
of which is a  modal stack) and pause the calling handler until the  
modal stack is closed.
Very handy :-)

Best regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
