Pop up
how to create a pop up in quickbase without javascript? ------------------------------ Mariela Vasquez ------------------------------
Forum Discussion
There are a few options in form rules for displaying a message either when the record is opened, if the user is in a certain role, or based on data from fields in the form. It isn't perfect and JavaScript gives you more options, but it is a native solution. I'm sure you have seen these already though.
Maybe if you described what your intentions are with the popup someone would be able to direct you to a better solution. You could technically send the user to a code page and have that show your popup or information to the user in another way. Instead of a popup you could have the code page load with your desired information and have the user click okay and then be redirected back to where you want. This might work okay for this purpose or not, it just depends on what you are trying to do.

- what I need the pop-up window to do is that when it takes the user to an external page it appears as a pop-up window not as a tab, where it enters the data that is requested, and when saving it returns to the initial page

------------------------------- I've seen this request numerous times in the community - in fact I had it myself. To my knowledge, there is no way to accomplish this outside of actually coding.
I went to the user voice, and surprisingly did not find many posts about this, however the one I did find about having a pop up window for a new record, was marked Declined. Perhaps not something QB has any intention of taking on natively...

------------------------------- I understand that natively it is not possible, but with HTML and CSS it is possible?
