Running SSJS from CSJS: Sometimes its the only way!

Last weekend I was working on some code and needed to pass two values to a client-side JavaScript function.

No problem except that one of the values for the function was going to be the ID of an XPage component.  Since XPage ids are generated dynamically, I used the nifty getClientId() SSJS function to get the ID of the component but I ran that function in the Client-Side JavaScript to be run when a button was clicked.

Using SSJS in CSJS is very handy and sometimes the only way to do what you need to do within an XPage.
