The function works, but the popup will open only after the button is clicked twice (and then, subsequent clicks get the action on the first click).
$(document).ready(function(){
$('a#printPosBtn').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('.printPopup').popupWindow({
centerBrowser:1,
height:500,
width:720,
scrollbars: 1,
resizable: 1
});
return false;
});
});
What's wrong?
I think that is because you are actually initialising the plugin within the click
handler. From a quick skim through the popupWindow
docs it appears that the plugin takes care of binding a click
handler for you, which means that your first click binds the popup functionality (including an onclick handler) so it only works upon click a second time. I would try:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".printPopup").popupWindow({
centerBrowser: 1,
height: 500,
width: 720,
scrollbars: 1,
resizable: 1
});
// open popup by clicking on some other element
$('#printPosBtn').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$(".printPopup").click();
});
});
