<emit source="js-dynamic-popup"></emit>

Provided by module: JavaScript Support: Tags

Creates a dynamic load popup. This plugin creates a link to a dynamic loaded popup. The content of the popup will be loaded from the specified url.

Before this tag can be used a layer with the same name as this popup must be created with the <js-dynamic-popup-div> tag.

In order to use this tag the components; CrossPlatform.js, Popup.js and DynamicLoading.js must be included in the page with the <js-include> tag.

Note that dynamic loaded layers don't work with Netscape 6 browsers. Please see the comment in the beginning of the DynamicLoading.js component file for more information.

name="string"

props="javascript object name" (default_props)

PopupProperties is defined in the Popup.js component and takes two arguments: x, and y offsets from the target event for positioning of the popup at a desired location.

There are some methods available in the object to set properties:

setHideDelay

The time in ms it takes before the popup is hidden when the mouse leaves the popup (default is 300 ms).

setHide2ndClick

If the popups parent is clicked a second time, the popup will be hidden if this method was called.

setParentRightOffset

The x offset from the parent popups right border. This offset will only be used if the popup has a parent popup i.e. not at the top level. This offset overrides the x_offset.

setParentBottomOffset

The y offset from the parent popups bottom border. This offset will only be used if the popup has a parent popup i.e. not at the top level. This offset overrides the y_offset.

setPageX

Sets the popup to this absolute x coordinate.

setPageY

Sets the popup to this absolute y coordinate.
