Hi:

I have been adapting the IRIS WHIZ addon as part of the contest. I will soon fork the code on github so the changes are available.

The next phase is I am storing the date from and to time for a more complete search cache

zenPage.getComponent(36).value

it works in the chrome console ok

I'm not sure in external JS how to set the page it is on as a zenpage to use the zenpage functions

ZENpages load a bunch of dedicated js libraries + scripts in browser for it's communication
Suggestion: create a simple ZEN page and check js libraries and scripts used.

I had a look but still couldn't see where exactly zenPage is defined to be able to call one of the scripts to use the getComponent function from an external js script

a zen page definition creates a class (just like CSP)
the runtime of this class is an INT routine.
Anr there is hidden the truth of JS and COS
