Styling problem
« on: May 18, 2012, 02:05:37 PM »
Hi,

Issue number 1:
When I use a non-popup update-form or a memory form, my accordeon menu gets over written.
See the png's I sent along.
01 = The sccreen before it all goes wrong.
02 = The wrong situation.
Btw pop-ups work ok.

Issue number 2:
I would like to call a form immediately from the menu (I know the URL  :)). As a popup.
When I don't use the procedure version of the call I cannot check the popup box.
Is there a work around for this. I need popups because of issue number 1

Cheers,
Rene Simons

Hi Rene,

Issue 1: from here;
http://www.capesoft.com/docs/NetTalk6/NetWebTasks.htm#ConvertFrames
"Go to the Menu extension, CSS tab, TaskPanel tab, set Menu Div to 'nt-left'. This causes the TaskPanel menu to float to the left hand side of the window, and the browses and forms etc to appear to the right of it."

In your case the accordion menu tab, not taskpanel tab. Have you done this?

>> I would like to call a form immediately from the menu (I know the URL). As a popup. When I don't use the procedure version of the call I cannot check the popup box. Is there a work around for this. I need popups because of issue number 1

you should be able to use the procedure name. This is necessary because a container for the popup is generated onto the page (and hidden) when the menu is generated. So if you are linking to a specific procedure it needs to know that.

So the work-around is to use the Procedure field, and the Parameters field.

Cheers
Bruce

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.
Because the app is generated by the wizzard, all settings are already as they sould be.
Adding/changing the Menu extension, CSS tab, Accordeon tab, set Menu Div to 'nt-left' doe not help.
The form takes 100% of the screen width and the heading of the form is enormous. It takes 60% of the screen height.
(nt-tab-title ui-tabs-nav ui-helper-reset ui-helper-clearfix ui-widget-header ui-corner-all)

I'm still convinced there is a styling problem here that I cannot slove.

Cheers,

Hi,

My problem stays the same no matter what I do.
I created an example with just forms to illustrate.

Cheers,
Rene Simons

Hi Rene,

try the following;
WebServer procedure, NetTalk Extension Styles tab;
Browse Tab: Div: 'nt-left nt-width-80'
Form Tab: Form Div: 'nt-left'

Cheers
Bruce

see if you can figure out how to reduce the width, to say 80%, for the Error div.

cheers
