overlay_open
Renders a template on the server and opens a full screen overlay with the HTML output of the template.
Example:
{% button text="show story" action={overlay_open template="_story.tpl" id=1234} %}
This opens an overlay over the current content. The template _story.tpl will be rendered with
the argument id (and possibly any other arguments). The rendered html will then be shown
inside the overlay.
The overlay template is a div with the class modal-overlay. Extra classes can be added using
the class argument:
{% wire action={overlay_open template="_splash.tpl" class="splash"} %}
The overlay action has the following arguments:
| Argument | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| template | Template to render in the overlay | template=”_overlay.tpl” |
| class | Extra CSS class(es) to add to the overlay diff. | class=”myclass other” |
| level | Nesting of the overlay. Non negative
integer, higher numbered levels are
displayed above lower levels.
Special level "top" to force
display on top, above all dialogs
and other overlays. |
level=”top” |
All (extra) arguments are passed to the rendered template.
