7.99 POP_UP

The POP_UP command displays information on a workstation in a pop up window.

The POP_UP command is only valid in RDMLX functions when being used on the Web. If it is used elsewhere a fatal error occurs at runtime. If this occurs, either put your POP_UP command in an RDML function or use a Form to show user information.

The POP_UP command is functionally very similar to the DISPLAY command, except that the information is presented in a window that overlays (or pops up over) information that is already on the screen.

For example, the following DISPLAY command:

   DISPLAY FIELDS(#CUSTNUM #NAME #ADDR1 #ADDR2 #ADDR3 #PHONE #ZIP)

might cause a panel to be presented on the workstation that looks something like this:

         Customer no  : 99999999
         Name         : XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
         Address      : XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
                      : XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
                      : XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
         Telephone    : 9999999999
         Zip          : 999999

If the following POP_UP command was then executed:

   POP_UP FIELDS(#DEBIT #CREDIT)

the resulting panel on the workstation might look something like this:

         Customer no  : 99999999
         Name         : XXXXXXXX ---------------------- XX
         Address      : XXXXXXXX |                    | XX
                      : XXXXXXXX | Debit  : 999999.99 | XX
                      : XXXXXXXX | Credit : 999999.99 | XX
         Telephone    : 99999999 |                    |
         Zip          : 999999   ----------------------
