hi,
1.Declare the following in the implementaion of the component controller
//@@begin others
  IWDWindow modalWindow;
  //@@end
2.First create a method in the component controller :
public void createExternalWindow( )
    //@@begin createExternalWindow()
    // create external window
    IWDWindow externalWin = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow
                                                        ("http://www.google.co.in/", "External");
    //Define window position and dimensions according to acreen parameters
    externalWin.setTitle("Google");
    externalWin.setWindowPosition(WDWindowPos.CENTER);
    externalWin.setWindowSize(1280,850);
    externalWin.show();
    //@@end
3.Create a button in the view, create an action. assign this action to the button . Now call the method in the view controller.
public void onActionexternal(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
    //@@begin onActionexternal(ServerEvent)
    wdThis.wdGetPopUpCompController().createExternalWindow();
    //@@end
Now to create a modal window
1.Declare the following in the implementaion of the component controller
//@@begin others
  IWDWindow modalWindow;
  //@@end
2.Create a new window "NewPopWindow".Declare the following in the implementaion of the component controller.
public void createModalWindow( )
    //@@begin createModalWindow()
    //creating the window
    IWDWindowInfo winInfo = wdComponentAPI.getComponentInfo().findInWindows("NewPopWindow");
       modalWindow = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createModalWindow(winInfo);
    //display window in centre
    modalWindow.setWindowPosition(WDWindowPos.CENTER);
    modalWindow.setTitle("Modal Window");
    modalWindow.setWindowSize(400,100);
    //opening the window
    modalWindow.show();
    //@@end
3. destroy the window
public void destroyModalWindow( )
    //@@begin destroyModalWindow()
    modalWindow.destroyInstance();
    //@@end
4.Create a button in the view, create an action. assign this action to the button . Now call the method in the view controller.
public void onActionmodal(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
    //@@begin onActionmodal(ServerEvent)
   wdThis.wdGetPopUpCompController().createModalWindow();
    //@@end
