prady can i call a vf page as popup from link button in a standard page?
Hi,
I want to show a popup of list of cases without parentid and allow to select usign checkbox and the selected cases are added up in a related list. This popup would be availabe on clicking of link button
First question would be can i call a vf page as popup from a standard page?
You can indeed. When you create a custom button for a standard/custom object, you can specify the Behaviour as "Display in New Window" and the Content Source as Visualforce Page.
Note that in order to use a VF page in this way it will need to use the standard controller of the object in question - that is, if you create a button on the account object, the visualforce page must use the account standard controller otherwise it won't appear in the list.
You can call a VF page from any button or link. For this Select a 'Visualforce Page' in Content Source picklist and select your VF page from content picklist.
I know we can call a VF page, but i guess it opens a new page, can it comeup as a popup?
hi! you can do with javascript.
Try this to see if is what you know
<INPUT type="button" value="New Window!" onClick="window.open('http://www.pageresource.com/jscript/jex5.htm','mywindow','width=400,height=200')">
this is from a button but you can do through a link
<A HREF="javascript:newwindow()" ></A>
Set the behaviour on your custom button to open in new window - that will give you a popup.
