Conditional Popup

[TBBW]

Abend,

how do I create a conditional popup?
situation; if I push a button the action will be call a visu page, now the curtain open/close popup will be shown.
and you will be able to open and/or close the curtain.
But this curtain is situated in front of a door, so if the door has been opened during the day I want a warning popup first, like
"Close and lock the door first" and if the OK button of that popup window is pushed the open/close popup window can be shown
so;

ICO; DoorHasBeenOpened = 0 --> Show open/close curtain popup .
DoorHasBeenOpened = 1 ----> Show the close and lock door popup and thereafter the open/close curtain popup

Grusse,

Hello,

I havent't had the opportunity to test it yet, but I think you might be able to solve this by using the XXDOMODULCLICK-function. I've recently put up something quite similar to protect certain pages with a passphrase.

Here's what I think MIGHT work:

- Create a Popup-page "pop_condition", that contains an element to close the page and a module-container named for example "mod_condition". The Module "mod_condition" is the area to be filled with either the content-page "door" or the content-page "curtain" (Make sure you've defined those pages via XXMARK in the first place).

- Now you place two dynamic text-objects on your page "pop_condition". Both listen to your ICO "DoorHasBeenOpened" and create different DoModulClick-Code as shown in the images I appended.

Hi Johannesburg,

How do I create a module container?

"module container" was simply my description for an XXMODUL. So - in our example - the container mod_condition would just be a textelement with the content "XXMODUL*mod_condition"

Hi Johannes,

Thanks again for the input, as I do not fully understand the MODUL concept -yet- I will tell you what I did so far.
I use 4 main pages, for this "problem" I use the Visualisation page "GroundFloor".
On this page I put an text-element, it is a static text element. static text is "XXDOMODULCLICK". The action setting is "open page".
and the page to be opened is "pop_condition".

Next I created a visualisation page, named "pop_condition".
On this page are the following items:
- A text element with designation (Bezeichnung) "Mod Selection Curtain". I use the Dyn. text selection.
in the dyn text selection I put "from 0 to 0, XXMODUL*Curtain* " For this page I use action "none"
- A text element with designation (Bezeichnung) "Mod Selection Door". I use the Dyn. text selection.
in the dyn text selection I put "from 1 to 1, XXMODUL*Door* ". For this page I use also action "none"

Both listening to the ICO "DoorHasBeenOpened".
and,
- A static text element showing "XXPAGE*POPUP*top:MOUSE-200px;left:MOUSE-300px;"

and the two pop-up pages "Door" and "Curtain"

on the xxapi-init page I put;
XXMARK*Curtain* (Action, open page and the page is "Curtain")
XXMARK*Door* (Action, open page and the page is "Door")

Now I do a test,
if I click the text element, the "Door" page is shown when the ICO = 1 and the "Curtain" page when the ICO = 0.
(In both pop-up I had to change the navigation back action to open page with the page "GroundFloor" ???)
I also made a button to change the value of the ICO, when I reset it to 1 again, the door page is not shown, instead
the curtain page right away.....

Where do I go wrong....

Grusse,
