Create Multiple Dialogs

Essential Studio for ASP.NET library supports multiple Dialog widgets in the same web page with different contents and different functionalities.

Initialize the Dialog widgets by configuring as below.

HTML

<ej:Dialog ID="firstdialog" Title="Dialog" Width="250" runat="server">

        <DialogContent>
            <p>This is a Dialog</p>
        </DialogContent>

        <Position XValue="20px" YValue="20px" />

    </ej:Dialog>

    <ej:Dialog ID="seconddialog" Title="Window" Width="250" runat="server">

        <DialogContent>
            <p>This is a different Dialog</p>
        </DialogContent>

        <Position XValue="300px" YValue="20px" />

    </ej:Dialog>

    <ej:Dialog ID="thirdialog" Title="PopUp" Width="250" runat="server">

        <DialogContent>
            <p>This is an another Dialog</p>
        </DialogContent>

        <Position XValue="150px" YValue="150px" />

    </ej:Dialog>

NOTE

If the position of the dialog is not set as above, all the three dialogs will be overlapped with each other.

A Dialog widget can be nested within another Dialog widget.

<ej:Button ID="outerbutton" Text="Open Dialog" Type="Button" ClientSideOnClick="openDialog" runat="server"></ej:Button>

    <ej:Dialog ID="outerDialog" Title="Dialog" ShowOnInit="false" Height="400px" Width="500px" runat="server">

        <DialogContent>

            <ej:Button ID="innerbutton" Text="Open Nested Dialog" Type="Button" ClientSideOnClick="openNestedDialog" runat="server"></ej:Button>

            <ej:Dialog ID="innerDialog" Title="Nested Dialog" ShowOnInit="false" Height="300px" Width="400px" runat="server">

                <DialogContent>
                    <div>This is a nested Dialog</div>
                </DialogContent>

            </ej:Dialog>

        </DialogContent>

    </ej:Dialog>

        function openDialog() {
            $("#MainContent_outerDialog").ejDialog("open");
        }
        function openNestedDialog() {
            $("#MainContent_outerDialog_innerDialog").ejDialog("open");
        }
    </script>

             <ej:Dialog ID="basicDialog" Title="Software Installation Agreement" runat="server" ClientSideOnCreate="onCreate" Target=".control" ShowFooter="True" FooterTemplateId="sample" ClientSideOnClose="onDialogClose">
                <DialogContent>

                       Do you really leave the session?                                
                    </div>
                </DialogContent>
