There are three methods you can use to display a popup Window to your users.  (Know that these Windows are created using Div tags.  In other words, they are not actually new Windows and will not be blocked by popup blockers.) 

This feature of H2O is great for displaying Notices to visitors by creating a form with one control that contains the script for the popup.  The form will be invisible and the notice will be displayed. You can also use this method to initiate a work-flow or wizard data entry into a popup that opens other H2O Forms.  Or simply use the Link control in your form to display additional information to the user about anything related to the form they are currently viewing.  To see what the popup looks like, click here for instance of an H2O Form displaying a work-flow diagram that was being created with H2O.  These methods are listed below:

 

  1. You can display another H2O Form in a popup when a user clicks a Link control in your form. The H2O Script associated with this method will only work with the Link control. 
  2. Display another H2O Form when the current form is initially loaded.  The H2O Script associated with this method can be applied to any control.
  3. and you can display any web site into a popup when the current form is initially loaded. The H2O Script associated with this method can be applied to any control.

 

  
 
After you select the function of your choice for the popup method you want to use, the H2O Script will automatically appear in the Control Script field.  If you chose method one your screen will look something like the image to the left.  The break-down of this script is below:
  • POP- This is the H2O Script indicating the function you want to carry out
  • 13 is the Form ID to be opened
  • 600 is the Height of the Window to be displayed
  • 700 is the Width of the Window to be displayed
  • TRUE indicates that the window should be opened with the parent window disabled
  • The last parameter "Work-Flow Diagram for H2O Solution" is the Title of the Window

 

The H2O Control Script syntax for each method is listed below in related to the same order as mentioned above:

  1. POP-FORMID;HEIGHT;WIDTH;MODAL(TRUE/FALSE);TITLE
  2. POPINIT-FORMID;HEIGHT;WIDTH;MODAL(TRUE/FALSE);TITLE
  3. POPINIP-URL;HEIGHT;WIDTH;MODAL(TRUE/FALSE);TITLE
