I am trying to build a dialog to allow for full search picklist capabilities.

The dialog has an input field, a dataView and search button. Finally, an Ok Button puts selected document IDs on a scope variable. The issue is that this is not working inside the dialog, and does work outside the dialog.

Is there an issue with selecting documents from a view inside a dialog?

The following SSJS code apparently does not collect selected documents when the view is inside a dialog:

getComponent(viewID).getSelectedIds()

why?

I am using a xe:remoteMethod to execute the above code.
