initObj parameter of the PopUpManager.createPopUp() method is an
object that contains properties with the same names as the
properties of the component you want initialized. So, if your popup
component contains a property named "myProp", you can initialize it
by passing {myProp: someValue} as the initObj parameter of
createPopUp(). The { } notation is just shorthand for creating an
Object; using var a = new Object(); a.myProp = someValue; and then
passing a as the parameter of createPopUp() works just as well. In
your sample code, you pass an object with a property named
teamMemberObj set to an array. If you don't have a matching
variable named teamMemberObj (I called it teamMemberData in the
example code), then that won't work.
Here's another simple test: Pass { teamMemberData:
dgTeamMemberName.dataProvider } as the initObj for createPopUp().
Also, be careful using dgTeamMemberName.length; if dgTeamMemberName
is a DataGrid component as I suspect, then you would want
dgTeamMemberName.dataProvider.length instead.
