Hello,
I need to show a popup window with the details of a row of a data table when I click one of its fields.

I did some tests with jcepopup, but it seems I should CONCAT quite verbose HTML to make it work, something like


...just for a single column.

So I'm wondering if there is an easier way to get this behavior.

Thanks for any suggestions

Hello,

You can use "Columns settings -> Format" parameter to modify values from a selected column. For example if you want to change values for "nomeFornitore" column, set "Columns settings -> ID" parameter to nomeFornitore value and set "Columns settings -> Format" parameter to the following value:

<a href="index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=88:fornitore&amp;catid=9:uncategorised&amp;Itemid=435">{$value}</a>

Perfect, that's exactly what I was looking for: this makes my query much more readable.
BTW, the string could just be the following:

<a class="jcepopup" href="index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=88:fornitore&amp;catid=9:uncategorised&amp;Itemid=435" target="_blank" data-mediabox="width[300];height[400];idFornitore[99]">{$value}</a>


Now, I understand that it's out of scope for this forum, but if anyone could tell me how to modify the string above to pass {$value} to the called article so that I can retrieve it through $_POST, I would really appreciate that.

Thanks,

Mauro

Request variables can be used in "Columns settings -> Format" parameter in the following way:

{$REQUEST:VAR_NAME}

Where {VAR_NAME} is a name of request variable.

Thanks. Sorry didn't explain well. The ARI table is in the CALLING window, but I need to retrieve the variable through PHP in the CALLED window which does not contain an ARI table. I expected to pass the value (idFornitore[99] - see my previous example) and then retrieve it with $_POST["idFornitore"], but it doesn't work.

Thanks

Add GET parameter to link which is created in "Columns settings -> Format" parameter. It should be added to link (see "href" attribute) not to "data-mediabox" attribute.
