Before you start shooting me down i have checked for answers and i have googled till my fingers bled but i havent been able to find a simple, concise answer. So im asking ag
The way i got this to work is as follows: i wrote a jsni method to open a new window
public static native BodyElement getBodyElement() /*-{
var win = window.open("", "win", "width=940,height=400,status=1,resizeable=1,scrollbars=1"); // a window object
win.document.open("text/html", "replace");
i added a basic body to the new window and returned the body element
win.document.write("<HTML><HEAD>"+css1+css2+"</HEAD><BODY><div class=\"mainpanel\"><div style=\"width: 100%; height: 54px;\"><div id=\"mainbody\"class=\"mainbody\" style=\"width: 100%;\"></div></div></div></BODY></HTML>");
win.document.close();
win.focus();
return win.document.body;
}-*/;
i then called this method from my main java method
BodyElement bdElement = getBodyElement();
I then injected my panel which has lots of widgets into the returned body element
SystemConfiguration config = new SystemConfiguration(); bdElement.getOwnerDocument().getElementById("mainbody").appendChild(config.getElement());
I agree with Bogdan: Use a DialogBox.
If you can't, you Window.open()
as you mentioned in option 1:
Window.open("form.html?entry=54")
Save
and Cancel
buttonsSave
or Cancel
is clickedCan't you just use a DialogBox?
