I have written a button onClick to open popup window. The window has a table with a commandLink in each row. How to populate the parent page textbox on click of commandLink in child page?

You can give the commandLink an ajax tag, with whom you render your parent textbox. Use something like this:

<h:inputText id="parentTextboxId" value="#{bean.text}" />

<rich:popupPanel domElementAttachment="form" show="#{bean.showPopup}" modal="true">

    <h:commandLink value="My Link">
        <f:ajax render=":mainForm:parentTextboxId" listener="#{bean.changeText}" />
    </h:commandLink>

</rich:popupPanel>

In the bean method bean#changeText the value of the textbox will be changed, but you can also do it elsewhere, like in the action method of your commandLink
