[SOLVED] Preferences in backend do not open in modal window 24 May 2013 19:03 #7227

When I click the "Options" toolbar button for my component in the, the main window navigates to the options page instead of opening in a modal dialog.

The native components all work as expected, it is just my j-cook component that exerts this behavior.

Any solutions? I didn't come across any when searching the forum.

Thank you in advance for the help.

I presume that there must be some JS errors on the page.

Please check using Dev tools like firebug. It's most likely to be a namespace collision with another version of jQuery resulting in an error along the lines of 'jQuery is not defined' or 'xxxx is not a function'

Please let us know!

Best of luck!

Hi, You are correct.

I had commented out this line in my admin/helpers/helper.php file because it was conflicting with the jquery imported by my template on the front end.

$doc->addScript($componentUrlAdmin . '/js/jquery-1.8.2.min.js');

I wrapped that statement in a conditional block instead of commenting it out and it worked as expected.

if ($app->isAdmin()) {
$doc->addScript($componentUrlAdmin . '/js/jquery-1.8.2.min.js');
}

Thanks for the help.

Although I found this tool some time ago I just started learning experimenting and building this first component on Monday and now on Thursday afternoon it's already online. Although I already had a working version done with another tool this is much easier to build and at the end you have the freedom to own your own component. Once you know how to use Cook you will boost your productivity as the learning curve is really moderate compared to many other tools.
