Links between portlets on the same page

Question

Hi,
I want to search for an employee in a poplist. When I choose one from the poplist I want a report to start that will show all the projects he is working in.
The above happens but when I put my form as a portlet on a page I want the report to start in another portlet on the same page. Now it opens in a new window and that's not good.
This is how the link works.
On the link in the form I have a call 'javascript:runrep()'
On the form, in the 'Form text' section, in the 'Footer Text' I added the
code for the runrep function (given below).
<script>
function runrep()
var formObj = document.forms[0];
var pers_id;
for (var i=0; i < formObj.length ; i++){
if (formObj.elements.name == "PERSONAL_SOK.DEFAULT.ID.01"){
//PERSONAL_SOK is the form name
pers_id = formObj.elements[i].value;
break;
var url="http://linux.ekn.se:7778/pls/portal/ppe_utv.ppe_visa_projektforslag.show?
//PPE_UTV is the schema_name and PPE_VISA_PROJEKTFORSLAG is the report
p_arg_names=pers_id&p_arg_values=" + pers_id;
window.location=url
</script>
I guess the url has to have another adress to open on the same page, but what?

The post below shows you how to link two reports on the same page. You can probably modify it's solution to achieve what you're trying to do.
