Hi Christopher,

If I understand correctly what you're trying to do, the best way would 
probably by using absolute addressing of container lists and fields.
Basically the methods

JahiaContainerList containerList = 
jData.containers().getAbsoluteContainerList(String containerListName, 
int pageID)

The only trick is that when you create the page, the container list will 
not exist until it has elements in it, so you should probably check for 
nulls, etc...

Regards,
  Serge Huber.
