Modal window/update panel

I have the UE inside of a modal window and an update panel. The UE works fine except for the toolbar items that use a dropdown (font, font size, etc). You can click on the controls but not make a selection (the menu does not expand).

During my testing, I noticed that if I try to change the font on the UE in the modal window, the font menu on a UE on the main page is expanded. The UE in the modal window behaves the same way whether or not there is a second UE on the page. Help... Thanks.

If you send us a self-contained web app having this issue, we can try it in our test environment and will try to resolve the issue from there. Thanks.

Re: Modal window/update panel

HI, I had the same problem with the Editor,

The Problem

the problem is the Z-index for the ultimate editor's Dropdown is set to 1
and for the modal popup background element (the black transparent div) is set to 1001 by default.

THE WORK AROUND

Instead of the usual post back

Modalpopupextender.show()

I wrote a javascript function "showViewPopup()" to call the modal popup , and set the button's onClientClick property to "showViewPopup();return false;"

if you dont use return false; it will cause a postback and wont show the modal popup

The function showViewPopup calls the modal popup extender's .show method
finds the div for the modal popup's background and then change the z-index to 0 and the z-index of the panel or holder which houses all the controls to 1

This way the Ultimate editor's drop down shows properly
here is the java code for that

function showViewPopup(){ var modalPopup = $find('<Behaviour ID of the modal popup> '); modalPopup.show(); document.getElementById('<modal Popup Name>_backgroundElement').style.zIndex=0; document.getElementById('ctl00_<name of the container>').style.zIndex=1;}
