Modal windows

Glossary Item Box

Overview

Modal windows display data in a pop-up dialog box. When a modal window opens, the page from which the modal window was opened does not close, and no new pages are opened in the process.  Thus, the page that the modal window displays is not shown in the browser history.

The modal windows are used to display and select data from various lookups, for example, when selecting an activity assignee from the contact lookup (fig.1).

General properties and behavior of modal windows are specified in the ModalBox and ModalBoxSchemaModule modules of the NUI package. The modal window for selecting data from lookups is called in the LookupUtilitiesV2 module.
