Document Suggestion, the easier example for custom pop up window
Hello iJoomla team,
just playing for an half hour to understand how popup windows works, i see that you have document here:
documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Popup_Window
here's your example code:
var ajaxCall = 'jax.call("community", "plugins,walls,ajaxSaveWall")';
cWindowShow(ajaxCall, 'Compose', 450, 300);For a new developer who is not really familiar with jomsocial (like i was), this create confuseness:
- why calling ajax ?
- what jax.call parameter are ?
and this leads to learn about understanding about ajax call in jomsocial (which can took up to 1 hours to understand things)... actually the info is too overloaded when the dev only want to do custom pop up but you give example about 'ajax call' stuff. Finally, this leads me to understand how cWindowShow works.. which 'cost' extra 10-20 minutes to understand (looking to all example in jomsocial, thanks to Dreamweaver - Find > Entire Local Site features)..
So after understanding it completely, herewith i suggest a change in the doc, so dev can quickly understand on how to do custom pop up:
windowTitle='Hello, This is Title';
windowMessage='Hi! <b>This is Content</b><br/>It is Easy !';
windowMessage='cWindowAddContent(\''+windowMessage+'\')';
cWindowShow(windowMessage, windowTitle, 450, 100);And a screenshot will be very helpful:
In Real World Example, i would create a function like this:
function jompopupWindow(title,message){
message='cWindowAddContent(\''+message+'\')';
cWindowShow(message, title, 450, 100);
}What do you think ? Comment please..
