OnLoad P:dialog?

[JMilnes]

Can you have p:dialog conditionally display when the page loads?

[mouadh]

try :

Code: Select all

<h:body onLoad="dialog.show()">
       <p:dialog widgetvar="dialog"/>
</h:body>

or you can implement your own javaScript to test some conditions then show or hide your dialog
for example :

Code: Select all

function showDialog(){
   if(Condition){
      dialog.show();
   }else{
      dialog.hide();
   }
}

then :

Code: Select all

<h:body onLoad="showDialog();">
       <p:dialog widgetvar="dialog"/>
</h:body>

I think <p:dialog visible="true"> also works.

Thanks for your suggestions. I used visiable="true"

Hello, I am using Primefaces Mobile 5.3 and onload="true" won't make a dialog show when page loads. Is it not working anymore and there is a different approach?

(I put the p:dialog inside pm:content... it is working when executed from a onclick="" in a button as usually, but ignoring onload="true")

thanks.

it's a little late so i post my answer for further readers:
Just use Jquery. and PF selector for widgets

Code: Select all

	<script>
		$(function() {
		    PF('dlgWidget').show();
		});
	</script>

Where dlgWidget it's the value of widgetVar attribute in dialog

Yes, I agree with robertoteles. I put my dialog show call in the JQuery onload method, i.e.

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript">
                        jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
                            PF('dlgSearchType').show();
                        });
</script>

works great!
