I'm using greybox and trying the following thing: I want to make a form inside the pop-up so when the users submit's it, the request goes to the main window and the pop-up closes.
I know the way to close the window is by using onclick="parent.parent.GB_hide()", but I really haven't been able to find a way to make the pop-up close and the data sent to the corresponding controller when the form is submitted.
I'm using Zend FW.
Thanks in advance,
I really appreciate what this community does.
Just use this code given below at the end of the loop
parent.parent.GB_hide();

Currently I am working on a project that relies heavily on modal dialogs. I'm using durandal's dialog plugin. The problem I have is that within a modal, a user can click an element which displays its details in another modal.
What I would like to do is to close all open modals before I open a new modal. Can anyone give me a good idea of how I can ensure only a single dialog is open at any given time in durandaljs?
Why not use Durandal's pub/sub, or a client-side message bus such as postal.js (which is what we use)? We close all modals by sending a close message over the channel 'app' and the topic 'app/modals'. Instead of holding a reference to an observable (which could have memory implications), we just hold a reference to the message channel (which is a string). Much cleaner way to go.
Ok so the issue I was facing was that I have various Modals, where one modal could be opened from within another modal. However I wanted the modals to close when another would open. The tricky part was that I am using widgets and click events to open the modals.
Since my project is an SPA it occurred to me to simply create a ko.observable - currentModal - on my global object and each new Modal closes the previous, then replaces the old with the new in currentModal(this);
I went even further and am now using the route objects to fire the Modals open as well. Durandal is fun.
I am trying to open a modal window during a click handler to verify the user action but the window doesn't appear until the handler completes. The window code can be as simple as the following and it still will not display so it isn't something to do with my abstract class.
Window w = new Window();
w.setModal(true);
w.setImmediate(true);
// Add components etc etc
UI.getCurrent().addWindow(w);
I could add the action code to the windows OK/Yes handler but that would stop me creating a generic Message class to simplify/stop code duplication.
I am guessing there is something I dont understand about how Vaadin/GWT works (still a newbie!), could someone point me in the right direction?
Cheers
For UI stuff, you have to stop thinking of sequencial programming,
better to think about event-driven concepts.
For Vaadin you could create a Dialog Window which asks the yes/no question.
In you app you create this dialog and display it.
And you attach a event-handler which is fired when the user clicks yes/no,
and inside this handler you then do the required actions in your code.
You can also look at this add-on
https://vaadin.com/de/directory#addon/confirmdialog
The right direction is architecture overview https://vaadin.com/book/vaadin7/-/page/architecture.html#architecture.overview
In other words your code makes only response from server side, but only client side can show "modal" window.
In your case you have to create handler for ok button click event and wait for this event
I want to have a gtk_file_chooser_dialog that does not browse into a folder if it has a specific name. For this I hooked up my dialog with a callback when a current-folder-changed signal is emitted. In the callback function I successfully detect if the selected folder has the specific name. However, I can't figure out how to tell the dialog to close itself and return a specific response code (e.g. GTK_RESPONSE_OK).
I have unsuccessfully tried (among other things):
g_signal_emit_by_name(G_OBJECT(my_dialog), "response", GTK_RESPONSE_OK);
Has anyone a better idea ? I would appreciate any pointers into the right direction..
cheers
You're trying too hard. Just use:
gtk_dialog_response(GTK_DIALOG(my_dialog), GTK_RESPONSE_OK);
See the splendid documentation.
Is there a function that allow me to select text when the extension
stays open. Normally when I Use the extension popup and I Click outside the
extension the extension close. Is there a wat to avoid this.
Thank you so much
Unfortunately there is currently no way to keep the popup open once you focus out of it. This is by design.
If you would like to always show something while interacting with the page, perhaps the experimental Info bars or even Desktop Notifications would work?
Hope that helped!
The only way to keep it open is to right click over the extension icon (button) and select "Inspect popup" the extension popup then show up and remain open but of course the debugger window show and this not a fix obviously still it will maybe inspire a hack... if someone is skilled enough and share the solution with all of us.
I encountered the same problem and I've thought of a possible solution (though not tested it):
Use your background.html to store the content of the popup action and upon loading the popup, you fetch the content via the default messaging for chrome extensions.
When doing all kinds of other stuff, like XHR's or something, I think you should do that in background.html too, so the requests won't abort if you close and you can do something with the result. Then when a user re-opens the popup, he'll see the result of his previous action instead of the default screen.
Anyone tried something like did already?
As far as I know you can't persist a pop up menu but my workaround has been using a content script to append a menu on page load. After the menu is appended you can toggle the menu via messaging between the background script and the content script.
If you want to encapsulate the menu from the page it's deployed on you could wrap your menu in an iframe. This could add complexity to your project since you would have to deal with cross origin issues and permissions.
There is an alternative hack for this. You can make use of chrome local storage to store the metadata as needed. Upon restart you can read that metadata and render the desired content. You will also probably clear that metadata after you have completed performing the operations based on that.
how to open a pop up window in code behind(C#) without using javascript.
Besides the fact that popups piss off a lot of people, it is not really possible to do so (if you don't consider target="_blank") without using javascript. Code written in code behind only generates client side code (which can include javascript) or executes some serverside stuff.
There might be other workarounds using flash or silverlight but I'm not sure about that. Maybe if you clarify your goal a little bit more I can give a better solution to your problem.
That is impossible because of "The code behind runs on the server; you need the popup to appear on the client machine. Therefore your code behind can't trigger a popup".
Alternatively, you can show a panel in the page as pop-up window, by seting it's z-index and giving absolute position.
The code behind runs on the server; you need the popup to appear on the client machine. Therefore your code behind can't trigger a popup.
Also, if you use javascript you'll probably find that the client's popup blocker prevents the new window from appearing (unless the popup happens as a direct response to a click - without posting back - in which case you can use <a target="_blank"...> if you really don't like javascript).
I do not think that is possible . what you can do offcourse is to open a new window with defined small width/height and all menus are stripped...
Just add attributes to a link button or to a button in code behind. Try this code to page load or to the button event handler.
Button1.Attributes.Add("onclick","javascript: SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog
({ url: 'PopUp.aspx', title: 'Pop Up Window', width: 600, height: 500 }); return false;");
