Modal Popup Extender and Iframe

Hi @dotnet.itags.org.all, misters

I would like to show a ModalPopupExtender in my page. I have an iframe in the page that shows an PDF file.

The trouble for me, when ModalPopup is shown the iframe appears above it and I cannot see contents of Modal Popup (only dropdownlist appears above)

Thanks in advance for any help. I have lastest version of Ajax Toolkit.

Greetings

I dont Quite have the same problem but it does involve the modal popup extender and i have an IFrame. I would like to display te modal popup in the parent of the IFrame. In other words when clicking on the link in the IFrame the popup should cover the whole screen not just the Iframe. I would also then need to select a value from the popup and pass it back to the Iframe. Is this possible anyone, its killing me. While im at another problem im having is that i have the ajax slider control inside a scrolling DIV but when that DIV is scrolled the ajax slider moves with the scroll instead of just staying wher it belongs. Help me please

I have exactly the same problem, the PDF object is covering my ModalPopup, I tried setting the modalpopu z-index higher than the iframe, but that didn't work, have anyone a working solution?Thanks!WL

Modal window with update panel stops working after its shown and hidden once

I'm having some trouble with the modal window tool. It behaves perfectly the first time i show it, and the first time I hide it, then although the updatepanel postback behaviour still works (and the text field in the example below is still updated) the modal window doesn't fire the onOkScript or hide as it does the firsttime.

Does anyone have any ideas?

<div><asp:LinkButtonID="lbCommunityProfile"runat="server">Community Profile</asp:LinkButton></div><atlas:UpdatePanelID="updatePanel2"runat="server"Mode="Always"><ContentTemplate><asp:LabelID="lTest"runat="server"Text="NoneSet"></asp:Label></ContentTemplate></atlas:UpdatePanel><atlasToolkit:ModalPopupExtenderID="ModalPopupExtender1"runat="server"><atlasToolkit:ModalPopupPropertiesTargetControlID="lbCommunityProfile"PopupControlID="Panel1"BackgroundCssClass="modalBackground"DropShadow="true"OkControlID="OkButton"onOkScript="__doPostBack('ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder$lbCommunityProfile','');alert('go');"CancelControlID="CancelButton"/></atlasToolkit:ModalPopupExtender><asp:PanelID="Panel1"CssClass="modalPopup"runat="server"><atlas:UpdatePanelID="updatePanel1"runat="server"Mode="Conditional"><ContentTemplate>

This is panel 1

<asp:TextBoxID="tbTest"runat="server"></asp:TextBox><asp:ButtonID="OkButton"runat="server"Text="OK"OnClick="OkButton_Click"UseSubmitBehavior="false"></asp:Button><asp:ButtonID="CancelButton"runat="server"Text="Cancel"></asp:Button></ContentTemplate></atlas:UpdatePanel></asp:Panel>

and in the aspx.cs file

protectedvoid OkButton_Click(object sender,EventArgs e)

{

string str = tbTest.Text;

lTest.Text =

"set" + tbTest.Text +"end";

}

Also just wondering what the javascript is to close a modal window. I understand you can use the ok and cancel buttons. I'd like to have a x in the top right of my window and have that close.

Is this with the June CTP of Atlas?
yes the most recent ctp

yes the july ctp

The June CTP is currently (this may change very soon) the most recent Atlas release. It has a problem whereby UpdatePanel updates under Firefox break all extenders. It sounds like you're hitting this problem. Atlas is aware of it and should have a new release out soon to correct the problem. Thanks for your patience!

Just wondering if any progress has been made on this topic?

The July CTP of Atlas fixes the problem mentioned above.
I am experiencing this problem with the July CTP. Appears to notnecessarilybe fixed. I've got a lot of other things goin on in the same page... I'm going to try and issolate the issue.

ModalPopup and auto-updating controls/server-side function calls

I'm having trouble searching for an answer for this and have been unable to find one, but this seems like a very trivial question, maybe I'm just too tired to be doing this right now.

I have a ModalPopup, and in it I have 5 textboxes(all with autopostback enabled) and two dropdownlists, also with autopostbacks. Now, what I want to have happen is when I change the dropdownlists, the values in the textboxes inside the ModalPopup will change, but I don't want the popup to close. Right now, the autopostbacks are working as they should, but the popup closes each time.

This is my ModalPopupExtender code:

<cc1:ModalPopupExtender ID="ModalPopupExtender1" runat="server"> <cc1:ModalPopupProperties TargetControlID="LinkButton1" PopupControlID="PanelEdit" BackgroundCssClass="modalBackground" DropShadow="true" CancelControlID="NoButton" OnCancelScript="onNo()"> </cc1:ModalPopupProperties> </cc1:ModalPopupExtender>

Now, one thing I thought of was the fact that there's no OkControlId defined, this is sort of a hack to get my Ok button to actually call the server side code for the Ok button, rather than just the javascript. If this is the problem, how do I define the OkControlId, and have it call the server-side code associated with the button?

I appreciate any help anyone can offer to my problem, and if you need any more code, let me know.

Hi,

I don't know the details of the ModalPopup, but did you try to wrap the ModalPopup content (5 textboxes + ddls) inside an UpdatePanel? Performing a partial postback should keep the popup visible (just guessing though).

I originally wrapped the panel containing my controls in an UpdatePanel, but that didn't work. I just now tried putting the actual ModalPopupExtender into the same UpdatePanel, but it had no effect, the popup still disappears when the autopostback is triggered.

Hi,

I mean, not wrapping the extended Panel, but the content of the ModalPopup (inside the Panel). Did you try that?

I just tried that, but to no avail. As far as I can tell, the behavior hasn't changed at all when I put the UpdatePanel around just the controls inside the panel.

This won't solve the issue

I had the same problem but in vain. Any postback from any element in the ModalPopup will close it

Did you find a workaround for it? Like, is there a way to disable postbacks from cosing the ModalPopup, then just do it inside the button that you want to close it?
This post suggests an easy way to re-display the ModalPopup on the server during the postback with the 60914 release.

After looking at the post, I see the new way to do it, but I am having a problem:

I'm running the following code in the page load event...

ModalPopupProperties popup = ModalPopupExtender1.GetTargetProperties(UpdatePanelEdit);
if (popup !=null)
popup.Show();// Or call popup.Hide();

My problem is, popup never gets assigned to anything except null...does this code have to be placed somewhere outside of the Page_Load?

The control passed to GetTargetProperties needs to be the one that's specified as the TargetControlID for the ModalPopupProperties.

Ok, I changed the control names and whatnot, and now the properties isn't null, but the .Show() doesn't actually do anything. I've stepped through the code, and it does execute the popup.Show(); but it doesn't have any effect. I removed the UpdatePanel I had, and just used a regular Panel control to contain the popup. The above code is in the Page_Load, does it need to occur before the actual page load?

I had a problem somewhat similar to this.

What happens on postback, is it rebinds the display:none style to the panel, hiding it.
In mine, I had a gridview and several buttons that would change the contents of. I ended up wrapping just the gridview in an update panel, and assigning each of the buttons to a trigger for the update.

Not sure if you can use this in your situation but I hope it helps.
