Configuring Pop-Up Applets Launched from Applets

---

This is the typical scenario in which clicking a button on an applet invokes a pop-up window for editing a set of values, or browsing through a list, and so on.

To configure a pop-up applet

1. Select the applet from which to launch the pop-up window.
2. Create a control for the applet.
3. Set the Method Invoked property of the control to ShowPopup.
4. Expand the Control object, and then select the Control User Prop object.
5. Create three control user properties:
   • Popup. Set to the applet you want to appear. This applet must use a class derived from CSSSWEFramePopup.
   • Mode. Optional. Mode of the applet, either Base or Edit. If not specified, the default is Base.
   • Popup Dimension. Optional. Dimension of the pop-up window. The format is Height X Width, for example 500 X 800. If not specified, the dimensions will default to the value specified in the applet's HTML Popup Dimension property. If that is not specified, the pop-up window dimensions will default to 600 X 600.
6. Create the pop-up applet.
7. Add controls to the pop-up applet:
   • Cancel. Set the Method Invoked property of the control to CloseApplet or UndoRecord. This will close the pop-up applet when Cancel is clicked.
   • OK. Set the Method Invoked property of the control to CloseApplet to close the applet after you finish processing other calls within your invoked method. This will close the pop-up applet, and then refresh the parent applet in the main browser window.
