As a start, it would be so nice to launch an XPage from a Notes form and be able to use the window.close() function to close the Xpage

Currently, any XPage launched from a Notes form will leave a blank tab open when it closes. Any attempt to open an XPage again from the form just navigates to the blank tab

This is almost a Notes killer in our company. We want to be able to introduce new XPage functionality bit by bit in a legacy (apologies for using that word!) Notes app to show the Notes haters that all the stuff they want to do in Java etc can still be done in Notes

Re: How can I open standard Lotus Notes document from xPages in Notes client.

This is an interesting notion, Mike. I've been thinking about how to make it work. It might require enclosing the application in a composite app. Do you think that's feasible?
