I have created a ZK application which, as expected, contains several windows and dialogs. One window, say window1, contains a grid with values and buttons. The renderer class of this grid, say GridRenderer.java, contains code for handling the click of a specific button:

final Button myButton = new Button(buttonName);
    myButton.setWidth("70px");

    myButton.addEventListener(Events.ON_CLICK, new EventListener<Event>() {
        public void onEvent(Event event) throws Exception {
            EventQueues.lookup("applicationqueue", EventQueues.DESKTOP, true)
                    .publish(new Event("buttonClicked", null, data));
        }
    });

I want two windows, window1(where the grid is placed) and window2, to subscribe to this event. In the controller classes of both windows I have inserted the following code:

 EventQueues.lookup("applicationqueue", EventQueues.DESKTOP, true).subscribe(
            new EventListener() {
                public void onEvent(Event evt) {
                    if (evt.getName().equals("buttonClicked")) {
                         //do something
                    }
                }
            });

My problem is the following: window1 can 'listen' to the subscribed event, but window2 cannot. Does anyone know a way to solve this problem.
