What is the best (most APEX-friendly) way to open a popup (or dialog) based on an interactive grid column response, when the grid is already in a modal dialog.
The grid is part of a survey, the survey is a set of wizard modal dialog pages.
Has been in production for several years. They like their survey in a popup/modal dialog.
As I see it there are 3 options:
a). Rework the survey wizard to NOT be a popup,
that gives me access to inline dialogs, possibly the custom popup plugin and inline popup come 19.1
or
b) Figure out a way to get a popup/modal dialog from a grid that is already in a popup, without a ton of custom JavaScript
or
c) Cobble something in that works for the short term, switch to non-modal survey wizard and use inline dialogs/popups from the grid in the next release of the app ( less time pressure).
a) Is more APEX-standard and upgrade-proof. I figure this is the "right" in-the-sandbox way.
BUT this changes how an in-production works. Not so good.
b) I suspect is less work at this point, but may in fact be more work in the future.
Am I causing more future grief going down the popup-from-grid-in-a-popup route?
Thoughts and suggestions are welcome,
Thank you - Karen
