Popup from browse form

[chili666]

Hi there,

what I am trying to do sounds quite simple - at least to me - but I only have very limited JavaScript and php knowledge, so I can't get it to work. What I would like to do is:

I have a browse/edit form and I am displaying that on a launch form. The corresponding edit form is supposed to open in a popup. So I tried all combination I could think of to get nuPopup to do what I want...

I settled on:

Code: Select all

nuPopup(5b508b1b49c4ad0,$('#Order_id'),.val());

this code is from a forum thread, that I found. The form-id is from the output of nuDebug(nuHash()); The edit form opens, but not as a popup...

What am I doing wrong?

And also: I`d like to update/refresh/reload the launch form on saving the popup-edit-form. How would I do that?

Thanks for your help - especially for being patient with somebody just getting into JavaScript

Cheers!

Luis

Luis,

I'm not sure I understand.

Can you include a screen grab of what your Form looks like?

I run some tests by passing different parameters to nuPopup():

5afd3e2349b903f: a valid form id
5afaa13eb523846: a valid record id

Code: Select all

nuPopup('5afd3e2349b903f','5afaa13eb523846');

nuPopup('5afd3e2349b903f','5afaa13eb523846','');

nuPopup('5afd3e2349b903f','-1');

nuPopup('5afd3e2349b903f','-1','');

nuPopup('5b508b1b49c4ad0');

Result: Popup opens but its width is very narrow:

It just works like this, if I pass an empty record id:

Code: Select all

nuPopup('5afd3e2349b903f','');

Sure, it's a rather easy setup:

This is the browse form:


This is the code I am using:

As you can see, I spent some time playing with css as well

This is the result of the code:

NuBuilder keeps on opening the same form over and over. It is however the correct form.... and it's a popup

This is the edit form - again nothing fancy....


And another try at explaining what I am trying to do (my english is getting quite rusty, i fear):

The user opens the browse form, selects a record by clicking on it. The record opens as the edit form in a popup. The user makes his changes, saves the record and closes the popup.

To me it looks quite simple, but it is way above my veeery limited JavaScript knowledge....

Cheers,

Luis

You need to implement your own nuSelectBrowse() function and then call the nuPopup() function from there:

Example:

Ich hoffe das hilft...

Thanks.. yeah that's it - now it is working as expected....

Danke!

BTW, it's probably better to add the ccs styles for .nuCellEven and .nuCellOdd under setup -> header if you want all Browse Screens to use the same style:
