the pop-up block can't automatically make block interfaces have ajax style submissions, but it does have an IFRAME option. You can turn that on, and then make a new "popup" page type that doesn't have any navigation (just and area on a blank page), adding the full to that new page type Then set up the popup rule so that you load the Full Page instead of just one target area.

btw, can you please use the Support forum instead of the Questions & Discussions forum for help configuring the package. it helps in managing all the open and closed requests.

Sorry about that Tony.

no way to hijack submit buttons?

I think you would basically need to re-do the form block into a ajax form.

but i don't know much about ajax.

yes, you can write some ajax to intercept that form submission, but for the popup, there's no intelligent way for it to know which forms to intercept, or which ones already have ajax attached to them. So for now, the best bet is to do this by hand. Add an on submit event to the form, serialize the form, and submit, then replace the contents. Ultimately it's going to behavior very much like the iframe mode though, so I don't really see what you gain from doing all this.

here's some example code (not tested)


$('#myFormName').submit(function(){
var data = $('#myFormName').serialize();

$.ajax({
url: $('#myFormName').get(0).action,
data:data,
type:"POST",
success: function(response) {
//swap response into popup here
}
});
});

Not that you'll have to fire this after the popup loads the content, but the popup class should throw an event that you can intercept for doing this kind of thing.

thx.
i'm using the jquery.form.js that already comes with c5, but still figuring out how to force the current popup to reload the current url on form submission, so the area which is selected for the popup reloads.
guess i need to fire loadURL again, but it does not work how expected.
