call an action when close a popup window - how to associate it ?

Luciano Schiavo

Question

I just want to call an action when my popup window closes by the X (close) option. As I reuse some screens (inside the popup) that are not prepared to use as popup layout, I don´t send notify from them.

There's no easy way to do that; you'd need to work some jQuery magic to make it happen (like detect the X's link, hook it's "OnClick" to trigger your Action, and the Action calls Popup_Editor_Close" as it's final step).

Thanks for suggestion Justin, but I have found a workaround. I put the following command in the onunload at extended properties:

"parent.OsNotifyWidget(parent.RichWidgets_Popup_Editor_notifyWidget,'" + EncodeJavaScript("closed") + "');"

and it worked.

Hi Luciano,

How does this work exactly ? I'm trying to call a screen action from the parent screen, not the popup one, but I'm kinda lost on how to call it.

Can you please help me ?

Thank you by advance,

Jordi.

Hi Jordi.

In your case you have to use the notify and the link below can help you a little.
