How do I get the current record ID in a script?

Question

Hopefully a fairly simple question: I am modifying an AJAX js for a quote building tool, that pops out product creation to a child window that lets me build a product from several options. The problem, is that I cannot figure out how to send the current record ID to the external page so it can put the product in the database. I can usually get this from the document.uri with some trimming, but I notice that doesn't have the record ID when coming in from the detail view to the edit view. Is there an easy way to do this, or should I just also modify the PHP to create an easily acces

Nevermind, I just added a hidden field with an actual ID to the edit view PHP, then used getelementbyid to do it.

For anyone else looking, I added:

$html .= '<input type="hidden" name="record" id="recordidhidden" value="'.$focus->id.'" />';

to the php and

var quoteid = document.getElementById("recordidhidden").value;

to the js file.
