How to invoke a popup programatically from adf region

Question

Hi All,
I have included a task flow as a region in my home.jspx page .
My taskflow contains a assets,jsff page where on save button click i want to show some popup message programatically
i mean i want to invoke showpoup code in my save action listener .
I got some code snippet but this is working only incase if popup is invoked from jspx .
public static void invokePopup(String popupId, String align,
String alignId) {
if (popupId != null) {
ExtendedRenderKitService service =
Service.getRenderKitService(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(),
ExtendedRenderKitService.class);
StringBuffer showPopup = new StringBuffer();
showPopup.append("var hints = new Object();");
//Add hints only if specified - see javadoc for AdfRichPopup js for details on valid values and behavior
if (align != null && alignId != null) {
showPopup.append("hints[AdfRichPopup.HINT_ALIGN] = " + align +
showPopup.append("hints[AdfRichPopup.HINT_ALIGN_ID] ='" +
alignId + "';");
showPopup.append("var popupObj=AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent('" +
popupId +
"'); if (popupObj) popupObj.show(hints);");
service.addScript(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(),
showPopup.toString());

Thanks with regards ,

Hello lucbors, This problem sounds like one I am trying to solve as well.
I have a popup on my jspx page that I want to call from the bean for my jsff.
My problem is in the step "get a hold on to a rich popup instance, which you can do by referencing a JSF component binding"
I cannot seem to find the instance of that popup.
The popup is a property in a managed bean that is registered in the adfc-config as session scope. I found another thread that said to
    //EmployerBean is the name of the managed bean for my jspx
    //  this code is in an event handler in GipsBean, the backing bean for my jsff
    HttpSession session = (HttpSession)context.getExternalContext().getSession(true);
    EmployerBean employerBeanInstance = (EmployerBean) session.getAttribute("EmployerBean");
    if(employerBeanInstance == null)
      employerBeanInstance = new EmployerBean();
      session.setAttribute("EmployerBean", employerBeanInstance);
    }Can you offer some insight? I am new to ADF, so my approach may be very wrong.
Thanks
