You can also use PopupWindowShowAction to show a View in a pop-up window. For more information, refer to the following help topic: Add an Action that Displays a Pop-Up Window.
Note
ASP.NET Web Forms applications have the following specifics:
- You can use the ShowViewInPopupWindow method on XafCallbackManager callbacks that the RaiseXafCallback script initiates. You cannot use it on control callbacks (for example, grid sorting).
- It is not possible to pause the current request to wait for user input.
- The main window is not refreshed when the Cancel button is clicked.
