An example of what I would like to achieve is: The primary instance of the program opens a text input window for the user to enter, say, one or more addresses from the contact list. It then pops up a second window, which could be another instance of the same program. In this window the user can search the contacts for the names he wants, and highlight them. When he is satisfied he clicks the submit button on the second window. When he does this the second window closes, and the primary window detects the response, processes it, and inserts it into the entry area. I gather that it would be possible for the first program to spawn a child process when the user clicks the button, and this could then open the second window. I think that the child can share session variables with the parent, so the parent could redraw its window, then wait for some flag to be set in the session window, indicating the second window was closing. The parent would then redraw its page incorporating the new information.

Re: [PHP] Pop up window in PHP code
PHP neither supports nor fails to support JS.
PHP just spits out something for the browser.
Use View Source in the browser and see what you've done.
Fix the PHP until you get what you want in the View Source to make
the JS work.

I know you can do it in Javascript, but I'm not sure what's the best way to implement it in php. I want the page to do nothing if no is pressed. With all due respect to my learned colleagues, my answer to your question is yes, you can accomplish your goal using just PHP. I assume that you understand that PHP is not a client-side language and therefore cannot, by itself, produce a real-time, operating-system-generated pop-up dialog box in the same way that JavaScript can. However, PHP can download a page with input fields disabled that includes a div styled to look like a dialog box with a couple of submit buttons labeled YES NO. Submitting YES will request the same page from PHP but without the dialog div and with user interface fields enabled; NO will request the same page but without the dialog div and with UI fields disabled. From the user's point of view, the main difference between doing this with PHP and doing it with JavaScript is that the PHP solution will take at least a few seconds for the round-trip to the server whereas JavaScript's response to a confirm() dialog will seem instantaneous.

Add the dialog form to the markup and position it absolutely to appear centered a bit down from the top of the window. To imitate a modal dialog, disable all other links and form controls by tweaking the markup in PHP before download. (I can't recall how cross-browser successful it is to cover up the page with a large transparent image to disable all UI, but that might be worth exploring.)

What you probably need to do us just use JavaScript and/or AJAX, or not do what you think you want to do. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

OK, I see what you mean: PHP could modify links buttons on a page being downloaded so that a second window would be opened (target=_blank) [if permitted by the browser settings] when the user tried to navigate. However, that child window couldn't close itself like a modal dialog does without using JavaScript, which is the driving constraint of this whole thought-problem. I have done some clever styling, but I am unaware of how you could hide all of the toolars, etc. Toolbars? No, I'm not that clever. I was only referring to disabling links and form fields within the HTML page itself. The best I could do using this technique wouldn't exactly mimic a modal dialog, just approximate one.

I don't know about 'CURRENT' but you have atleast 3 options:
1. if its an intranet app then just tell them they have to add the intranet
server
to a trusted zone (and that the browser should allow popups
2. dump your popup info in an absolutely positioned div and make the layer
visible on top of the rest of the page (with a js link that hides the layer
again)
3. use a js alert(), which you might consider ugly... BUT its modal, its not
blockable
(other than if js is turned off completely!) -- a user is therefore forced to
read the
alert and click OK in order to continue.
if you want to do something that is triggered by page onload() then you can use
this
function to add the handler to the document.onload event without breaking any
other
js code (functions) which have already been 'attached' to the onload event:
function joinFunctions()
{
var newfunc = '';
for (var c = 0;c arguments.length;c++) {
if ( arguments[c] ) {
var func=arguments[c].toString();
newfunc+=func.substr(func.indexOf({)-1);
}
}
return new Function(newfunc);
}
example:
window.onload = joinFunctions(
window.onload,
function() { alert('Hey User you have been assigned some new
tickets!'); }

I know exactly what you mean.
However, I believe window.open still works when used like
this:
a href=# onclick=window.open('foo.php', 'Foo',
'height=480,width=640,status=yes,scrolling=no,scrollbars=no');return
false;Click Here/a
At least, that works with Mozilla's pop-up blocker. As I
understood it, only those annoying automatic popups are
disabled.

Right, Mozilla set it up to block pop-ups that were not requested by the

Re: [PHP] pop-up
You need to modify topWindow() so that you can pass a query string to it,
which you can then use to add to the URL of the pop-up window.
SCRIPT
!--
function userpop(user_id)
{
var prefix = show_user.php?userid=;
var script = eval(prefix + user_id);
window.open(script, view_user,
toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=yes,menubar=yes,scrollbars=yes
,resizable=no,width=250,height=250);
}
// --
/SCRIPT
input type=BUTTON value=Preview onClick=userpop('justin');
This would pop-up a window with the dimensions listed, and I pass a userid
to it, which gets appended to the URL of the new window, passing a userid
variable into the target script via GET.
I *think* all input's need to be in a form tag regardless... a better way
to test your script would be to take the input/form out of the equation, get
your javascript right with a simple A HREF tag:
A HREF=# onClick=userpop('justin');
And since this is a JavaScript thing, not a PHP thing, you might want to
address the issue(s) in comp.lang.javascript

Re: [PHP] pop-up windows
In the old days, Rasmus would answer with something like: http://php.net/FAQ.php#4.17 That was back when the whole FAQ could fit in the head of a single person... :-) [Well, a single person as smart as Rasmus, anyway... :-)] This meta-thread about what to do about posters who obviously didn't do their homework is just as endemic to the system as the original problem. The poor will always be with you I truly believe that the best solution is to simply point them to the URL they should have found in the first place, maybe politely suggest they try the search engine first next time, and leave it at that. Being abusive is not going to make them want to improve themselves, really. Who gets the good results -- The sports coach who yells and screams at new, untrained players for stupid mistakes, or the one who politely informs them of their error, and sets them on the true path? Now if you got a poster who *CONTINUES* in their wayward behaviour, an off-list explanation of their error is a Good Idea (tm). :-) And, you'll never get the volume of a General list for something as popular as PHP to significantly decrease no matter how you try to hit users over the head with Do your homework There have already been more meta-posts about FAQs than FAQs, and that's just silly. [Which is why I'm making another one, of course :-)] Not saying that making it easy to find the right way to search isn't a Good Idea (tm) but extremes like a daily post to tell people that is just too much and won't help. Disclaimer: Once upon a time, a long time ago, as a brand-new user, I read the FAQ. A year went by. I asked question # 4.17. Why? Well, when I read the FAQ, I didn't even understand the QUESTION, much less the answer to #4.17. :-) A fellow named Rasmus was kind enough to just reply: http://php.net/FAQ.php#4.17 And you know what? About a year after that, I figured out (Hey, I'm slow, okay?) that this Rasmus guy (and that Zeev guy and that Andi guy) were the actual *DEVELOPERS* of PHP, and I figured they could better spend his (their) time fixing PHP for me, instead of answering questions with: http://php.net/FAQ.php#4.17 So, you know what I did? I started answering for him. Hey, I even answered questions I didn't even understand. No, really. There was this one Oracle question that kept popping up with the same error message, and the answer (not yet in the FAQ at that time) was SetEnv(ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle); [And that's not even the correct answer any more, but it was then.] I didn't really know what SetEnv was, and I hadn't actually touched Oracle (well, okay, Oracle 4.1.17 or somesuch when I worked this day job years and years before, and they had this *horrible* command-line ASCII art interface that you couldn't even create a database without answering a zillion questions I didn't understand the question, much less know the answer to...) Anyway, for all practical purposes, I knew nothing about Oracle. [Still don't, for all practical purpose, but I reckon I can get away with Just like chicken if I ever need to use it.] There were other questions about CGI and Module (whatever those are) and I just memorized the FAQ answers and posted away. I think I did that pretty solid for, oh, three, maybe four years or so... :-) Next thing you know, I was being hailed as PHP expert (and eventually became one, I guess...). 'Course, I also got abusive emails from (eg) Oracle users after I told them (in response to direct-email followup questions) that I had no idea how to work Oracle and had never even seen it, and they seemed to think I was deliberately lying to them and taunting them, but that's another story... :-) Anyway, my point is this -- Abusive answers don't help, no matter how frustrated you are. If you're that frustrated, let somebody else answer the FAQ, or just let the guy flounder for awhile. They'll either get answered by somebody else, or the poster will get off their duff and start digging. Either way, just hit delete. Just my take as a former (and maybe once again) regular You'll have to use my old email addresses to dig out my old posts if you wanna figure out just how regular I was, back in the day... [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] And a few more I reckon I've forgotten, but that's okay :-) I think Stas even had this nifty interface on the Zend site for a while tracking post frequency by email. I don't think I ever was more vociferous than Rasmus, but it was close sometimes :-) -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
