How to Pass Parameter/Value to the second page????

Question

Hi,
I am trying to display same popup window when I click on ADD,UPDATE and VIEW buttons. I don’t have any problem in displaying the popup when I click on ADD and UPDATE button but with VIEW button I wanted to display the popup at read only mode. In order to do that I have created a bean with session scope and set a ‘SetActionListener‘on VIEW button and set ‘from’ property to true and ‘to’ property to "#{IndividualSummaryDetails.readOnlyAddress}". I could not pass the value of readOnlyAddress to the popup. How can I pass the value of readOnlyAddress to the popup?
This value becomes true when I click on view button. If I pass that value to the popup then I can set the read only property of the fields on the popup with that value. So that the fields become read only.
Here is my View button
<af:commandButton text="#{CoreProperties['Global.commandButton.View']}"
windowHeight="450" windowWidth="600"
useWindow="true"
action="dialog:FromIndividualSummaryDetailsToAddress"
id="justView">
<af:setActionListener from="#{true}"
to="#{IndividualSummaryDetails.readOnlyAddress}"/>
Here is my Bean
public class IndividualSummaryDetails {
private Boolean readOnlyAddress;
public IndividualSummaryDetails() {
readOnlyAddress = true;
public Boolean isReadOnlyAddress() {
return readOnlyAddress;
public void setReadOnlyAddress(Boolean readOnlyAddress) {
this.readOnlyAddress = readOnlyAddress;
This value becomes true when I click on view button. If I pass that value to the popup then I can set the read only property of the fields on the popup with that value. So that the fields become read only.

We need to use portlet events for sending parameters across different pages.
