In the following Siebel eScript example, the script Identifies the current business object and sets the current contact Id as a global variable. You can use this variable to keep context:

function Application_PreNavigate (DestViewName, DestBusObjName)
{
   try
   {
      var currentView = this.ActiveViewName();
      var BO = this.ActiveBusObject();
      if(BO.Name() == "Contact")
      {
         var BC = BO.GetBusComp("Contact");
         var id = BC.GetFieldValue("Id");
         TheApplication().SetSharedGlobal("ContactId", id);
      }
   }
   catch (e)
   {
      this.Trace("Exception caught: "+e.toString());
   }
   return (ContinueOperation);
