Best Practice For Modal Window In Web Forms Application?
Feb 24, 2010
On a list page, clicking on one of the items brings up the details in a modal popup window which will have its own functionality (like validation, updating etc). What's the best practice to implement this (not looking for a hack). I see two options here:
Hide the details markup until a list item is clicked at which time, do a ajax request to get the details and populate and show the details section. Have the details section as a separate page by itself. On a list item click, show this page in a modal window (is this even possible?)
I have two webpages, parent page .aspx and child page .html. On parent page I have JavaScript function for invoking child page as modal window via window.showModalDialog.
function viewCourseModal(url) {
var sPars = SomeParameters(); var returnedValue = window.showModalDialog(url, "", sPars);[CODE]...
So when I launch parent window and invoke child modal window, parameter with "someValue" gets returned to the parent window (to modalReadyForTest control) upon clicking the button Button1.It works fine when I have both parent and child pages on the same domain. When I have them on different domains, value of the parameters does not get passed and instead it is always "undefined".Is there any way to have modal window from different domain returning parameter value to parent page? Can those cross domain issues be solved at all or should I try completely different approach?
I'm using Modal Popup, when user click i need to get the window in center, irrespective of screen size. my screen size is 1280*780 so i adjust the x and y value in modal popup im getting the window in center,but alignment is changed on other screen size. how to make the modal popup in center in all size
Page2 having Button 2 and an ascx control UC1. UC1 has a Button 3. Page2 is a modal dialog ( window.showModalDialog )
on Click of Button1 open Page2(modal dialog).
Page2 has UC1. UC1 has a button B3. On click of B3,instead of directly going to B3_click event, another post back happens. Thereafter opens login.aspx in another browser ( It is losing Session containing UserDetails as well as other session details).
now even If I continue entering Username and password, page2 reloads again in the new browser.
I am totally lost.
1) I do not know why UC1 button click makes another postback and thereafter opens up into another page losing all the sessions!!
I want to retain teh sessions till i go back to page1.
For the past couple of days, I've been scouring the Internet looking for a good solution, but it seems all of the examples I'm finding have one or more drawbacks. I've looked at various javascript, jQuery, and AJAX Control Toolkit ModalPopup code and I'm not yet satisfied. I have a web form that does postbacks to update the database and I want it to run in a window such that the user cannot return to the page from which it was launched until it has been closed. I would also like to be able to refresh all or parts of the launching page from the popup page when needed before closing it.
If anyone has successfully implemented something like this, I would be very interested in seeing the particulars in how you made it work.
My default page has a usercontrol that opens up a modal to allow updates. When the user closes the modal window I want the usercontrol that resides on the default page to update.
it looks like this
default.aspx has userControl1 user can open up a modal from userControl1 modal has textboxes for updating
when user closed modal I want to then refresh userControl1 on the default.aspx page without reloading the entire default.aspx page.
I happen to need this modal window to appear in height and width to be as large as a standard webform... I placed settings in the showdialog function for specific height and widths and nothing happened it maintained the size of a small dialog window with scroll bars vertical ones.
so far this is my javascript code behind the c#
Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var childwindow ; function ShowDialog() { childwindow = window.showModalDialog("CriticalIncidentReport.aspx", 'center: yes;resizable: yes ;status:0;state:maximize'); } </script>
I have a webpart in a page in which there is a gridview(which shows list of customers). When I click on a link button in gridview, I would like to popup a JQuery modal window and fill the popup(this contains textboxes, then a gridview which contains mapped systems for thet customer, and another gridview which contains list of configured reports for that customer) with the details based on the customer name(link) clicked. Here I need to pass the customer Id and customer name parameters based on which I can fill the Jquery modal window.
pass parameters to JQuery modal window in order to fill the contents inside it?
I want to know, if its possible to pass collection between pages. I mean to say i have a client-side JavaScript modal dialog on which I want to use my collection. Earlier I was using Session[] to share the value, but its becoming evil for me, as it always displays the first value. Any change in value in not updated.
So whenever my pop up is displayed I want the collection to get moved to the Child dialog. From there, i will extract the Collection, do some stuffs and again return it to parent page, preventing postbacks and session management.
I have a parent window from which i open a modal dialog on button click. In WinXP with IE8 it works just fine, but in Win7 with IE8, upon opening the modal dialog it brings me to the login screen. If i enter my credentials, close the dialog and open it again, it works.The explanation i figured out is that the session isn't transfered between parent and child.The modal is opened with javascript window.open function.I don't want to store the credentials in a cookie and then read it in my modal because it's a security no-no. Is there an explanation why this is happening in Win7 and not in XP and is there a resolution for this issue?
I have a popup window of course through the use of modalpopup extender that searches a record. In the popup window, I have two buttons - a search and a close button. Whenever, I click on the search buttton, the popup window immediately disappear. How am be able to make my modal popup window to stay visible even I click on the search button?
I currently have a asp test site setup which when the user clicks on the login link it opens the standard asp.net login page (login.aspx) within a modal telerik RadWindow. I am calling this page using javascript and this works fine.
The challenge I have now is when a user clicks on a link within the page if that link points to a secure section the login screen loads in the main frame of the site vs. a pop-up. I realize why (aka my js funciton is not being called) my question is to work around this would the correct/acceptible approach be to call a method from each link/button that tests for user authenticaiton? If the user is authenticated then redirect to the page otherwise call the javascript funciton to open the window?
I am having an aspx page page1.aspx with a button button1. On click of button1, a modal window popup is displaying using jquery.
The modal popup is displaying another page page2.aspx . I have appended the following line in the load event of all aspx pages to handle the session expiration.So that on expiration of session, it will automaticaly redirect to sessionexpired.aspx page.
I wish to do a modal popup window. I am new to AjaxControlToolkit. provide tutorial links explaining the necessary things to do this in a step by step manner.
I'm trying to use the modal popup window extender to display a 'loading' icon when the user uploads a file. I'm using the following:
Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance().add_beginRequest(beginReq); Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance().add_endRequest(endReq); function beginReq(sender, args) { // shows the Popup $find(ModalProgress).show(); } function endReq(sender, args) { // shows the Popup $find(ModalProgress).hide(); } //END -- // on the .aspx page <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" > var ModalProgress = '<%= modalProgress.ClientID %>'; </script> <asp:Panel ID="pnlModal" CssClass="modalPopup" Style="display: none" Width="233px" runat="server" > <img alt="Loading Icon" src="../images/redLoading.gif" />
The file is being uploaded, depending on the number of records this may take up to a minute.
</asp:Panel>
which I found on Berseth's site but I cannot get it to work. 'Null' error when it's trying to pop the window. Does anyone out here have another way to do this.
I am working on a ASP.NET website that needs popups in a modal window similar to JS confirm and alert. How would I do this on client and/or server side?
I have a need to display our application widget within a third-party website (think things like GetSatisfaction, UserVoice and other feedback widgets that people use). What is the safest and most reliable way to do this? I can think of some criteria and issues already: The code needs to be framework and language independent. Even though my app is ASP.NET, the 'launcher' will be run in any HTML page that belongs to our customers. So I suppose that limits me to HTML and Javascript only. The function needs to be very easy to call. So that implies a <script scr='mywebsite.com/widget.aspx' ...> as the sole thing to give to my customer. There is to be no use of CSS. Or rather, I can style things, but without a CSS file, as that could pull in styles that conflict with what my customer is running. There must be no use of libraries such as JQuery. I mention this because I can imagine problems if we pull in a JQuery version that differs from our customer's, thus ruining their site with our code.
I am exporting a datatable to an excel sheet. When the ExportToExcel event is fire it pops up a "file download dialog" asking if I want to open or save. What I want to do is right after user clicks on open, or save I would like to show a modal popup saying "Do you want to finalize this download?".
Here is some code, it all works except it won't show modal popup after exporting to excel. Why won't mpeFinalizeDownload.Show() run unless I comment out the line above it?
I have a weird problem. I have a window, on a button click I open a modal popup (using ModelPopupExtender), that let's you select a few criteria and then click a submit button. On click of submit button, I open a new window (using window.open()) that shows the status of what happened to your submitted request. However, every time this status window is opened, it goes to the login page. I am thinking the modal popup can't pass the authentication cookie to the newly opened window, but I'm not sure.
