Hi Guys and Gals,
I am trying to create a script using FLEXIGRID as a method to display the information from a database, but I want the users to able to input info into the database as well. I would like to be able to launch a modal window where the user can input the information and submit it. The way the buttons on the FLEXIGRID are coded is as following:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#flex1").flexigrid
(
{
url: 'post2.php',
dataType: 'json',
colModel : [
{display: 'ID', name : 'id', width : 40, sortable : true, align: 'center', hide: true},
......
buttons : [
{name: 'Add', bclass: 'add', onpress : test},
{separator: true},
{name: 'Delete', bclass: 'delete', onpress : test},
{separator: true},
.... some more code ...
}
);
});
function test(com,grid)
{
if (com=='Add')
{
the code that triggers the modal window
}
}
Okay, my problem:
When I press 'Add', I would like a modal popup window to appear to load using Ajax the content of a local file so the user can input the information.
What I have so far:
I tried using the code from JqModal: loaded the CSS and Javascript:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/jqmodal.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jqModal.js"></script>
$().ready(function() {
$('#ex2').jqm({ajax: 'examples/2.html', trigger: 'a.ex2trigger'});
});
added the div at the bottom of the page:
<div class="jqmWindow" id="ex2">
Please wait... <img src="inc/busy.gif" alt="loading" />
</div>
but how to trigger the function?
Thanks, Cristian.
LE: This is the code I have right now and it still doesn't work:
IE says: Object doesn't support this property or method flexigrid, line 56 character 5 That's exactly where the $dialog function starts.
