Re: Close modal-popup grid

This is REALLY good, but I have another problem. When I click on the little disk to update the window closes, editwindow I have called it, when I click on the submit button it does not close?

Re: Close modal-popup grid

This thread is very interesting but I had an a5w page with a grid in a popup window. Closing that is a different ballgame. As Selwyn explained such an a5w page is running in its own IFrame (i.e. in its own namespace) so in order to close it you have to use window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('foo'); where 'foo' is the id you get when inspecting the popup dialog in for example chrome. In my screenshot example that would be A5dlg0

I thought I'd share this

Sweet! Thanks! This did the trick for me!

Re: Close modal-popup grid

Urghh.. I have a grid that opens an a5w page and my button will close as described above. My problem occurs when a subsequent a5w page opens where the A5dlgx increments. Because I don't know which button/a5w page the user will press, I don't have a way to determine A5dlgx. So my question is..How can one predetermine the A5dlgx window identifier so my button will close as intended or perhaps save it to a variable.

Hinted by Selwyn & this help text in a dialog's afterdialogvalidate event help text:

'-------------------Closing the Window in Which the Dialog is Hosted -------------------------
'In many cases the Dialog will have been opened in a pop-up Ajax window and you will want code in this event handler to close the pop-up window.
'Here is how you can do this:
'a) In the action that opens the Dialog in a window, set the Window title to something like this: MyWindowTtitle<span id="mywindowid"></span>
'b) In this event handler set e.javascript to:
' var ele = $('mywindowid');
' {dialog.object}.closeContainerWindow(ele);

This doesn't work for me. What does work is your post #18 but the window id's changeAdlg2.JPGAdlg1.jpg

The user presses one button completes the questoinnaire, closes, then goes to the next button and completes that questionnaire...and the id changes.

Re: Close modal-popup grid

I presume you replaced the placeholder {dialog.object} with (grid.object} ?

I'm still having a similar problem with a popup window called from an html link in the footer of a tabbed ui & I don't know what placeholder to use

Re: Close modal-popup grid

Yes, I chose instead to set a maximum limit of 10 questionnaires. The first grid listing the questionnaires is A5dlg0. So In my close button I placed:

if (_myQAGlobals.signpushed=_myQAGlobals.savepushed)
{
{grid.Object}.ajaxCallback('G','{Grid.RowNumber}:all','encMsg','','_getData=true');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg1');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg2');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg3');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg4');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg5');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg6');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg7');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg8');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg9');
window.parent['closeParentA5Window']('A5dlg10');

}
else
{
alert('Please Sign and Save');
}

It works and I'm now moving forward! Thanks again as your post #18 is the answer for me..
