Go To Popup in Navigation not showing (vB custom page in poup window)

[cellarius]

Hi folks,

hope that someone can point me to the right direction.

I have a popup window spawned from within a vB page that loads a custom vB-page. The framework is all there (global.php), and I have used this design many times before. only difference: now I do not show the navbar, perhaps this is the problem.

I have database results on that external page, nicely paginated all over. Pagination looks good, and from the look on the html source in my browser it's all there. Only thing missing: The Go to popup. The space for it is there (one can see that there is an empty <td> there, and it's in the code). But already the pointer is missing that one clicks to open the popup.

I already pasted
<!-- PAGENAV POPUP -->
<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="pagenav_menu" style="display:none">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
<tr>
<td class="thead" nowrap="nowrap">Gehe zu...</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="vbmenu_option" title="nohilite">
<form action="index.php" method="get" onsubmit="return this.gotopage()" id="pagenav_form">
<input type="text" class="bginput" id="pagenav_itxt" style="font-size:11px" size="4" />
<input type="button" class="button" id="pagenav_ibtn" value="Los" />
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<!-- / PAGENAV POPUP -->at the end of my page, but that did change nothing. Well, after all, on other pages I designed that have pagination I never had to put that code...

Any hints?

[cellarius]

No ideas?

This is a Go To button in the popup window that isn't there? I don't understand what or where the something isn't working.

You said "The space for it is there (one can see that there is an empty <td> there, and it's in the code)." So, let's see the page source for that and let's see the actual code for that.

[cellarius]

OK, here we go:
Output-Source:

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" style="margin-bottom:3px; margin-top: 0;">
<tr valign="bottom">
<td class="smallfont">&nbsp;</td>
<td align="right"><div class="pagenav" align="right">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" border="0">
<tr>
<td class="vbmenu_control" style="font-weight:normal">Seite 1 von 3</td>


<td class="alt2"><span class="smallfont" title="Zeige Ergebnis 1 bis 9 von 25"><strong>1</strong></span></td>
<td class="alt1"><a rel="nofollow" class="smallfont" href="photo_popup.php?ins=link_thumb_2_orig&amp;alb=549&amp;prod =2&amp;cp=2&amp;page=2" title="Zeige Ergebnis 10 bis 18 von 25">2</a></td><td class="alt1"><a rel="nofollow" class="smallfont" href="photo_popup.php?ins=link_thumb_2_orig&amp;alb=549&amp;prod =2&amp;cp=2&amp;page=3" title="Zeige Ergebnis 19 bis 25 von 25">3</a></td>
<td class="alt1"><a rel="next" class="smallfont" href="photo_popup.php?ins=link_thumb_2_orig&amp;alb=549&amp;prod =2&amp;cp=2&amp;page=2" title="N?chste Seite - Ergebnis 10 bis 18 von 25">&gt;</a></td>

<td class="vbmenu_control" title="photo_popup.php?ins=link_thumb_2_orig&amp;alb=549&amp;prod =2&amp;cp=2"><a name="PageNav"></a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div></td>
</tr>
</table>

I do know that the <td>>/td>-Tags are supposed to be empty - at least there are in the other sites too. I looked at quite some of them, but did not get any further. Looking at some of the "suspicious" files in includes didn' help, either.

PHP-Code:

$perpage = $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('r', 'perpage', TYPE_UINT);
$pagenumber = $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('r', 'pagenumber', TYPE_UINT);
sanitize_pageresults($counter['fotos'], $pagenumber, $perpage, 100, $num_total);
$limitlower = ($pagenumber - 1) * $perpage + 1;
$limitupper = $pagenumber * $perpage;
if ($limitupper > $counter['fotos'])
{
$limitupper = $counter['fotos'];
if ($limitlower > $counter['fotos'])
{
$limitlower = $counter['fotos'] - $perpage;
}
}
if ($limitlower <= 0)
{
$limitlower = 1;
}
if (empty ($userfilter))
{
$pagenav = construct_page_nav($pagenumber, $perpage, $counter['fotos'], "photo_popup.php?" . $url_get_string . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl']);
As I said: The pagination itself works perfectly well. Only the Popup doesn't.

Screenshot attached. One can see the pagination, at the right corner the space of the empty td is clearly visible.

The framework of the page is as follows:

// ### Initiate vB Backend ###
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~ E_NOTICE);
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'photo_popup');
// change this depending on your filename
$phrasegroups = array('GLOBAL', 'album');
$globaltemplates = array('photo_popup');
require_once ('./global.php');

### My Code ###

eval ('print_output("' . fetch_template('photo_popup') . '");');
Whatever else might be needed to resolve this - just name it, I'll try to deliver ;)

Thanks for your help, it's very much appreciated.

OK, this is your blank empty td from the source, right?
<td class="vbmenu_control" title="photo_popup.php?ins=link_thumb_2_orig&amp;alb=549&amp;prod =2&amp;cp=2"><a name="PageNav"></a></td>


It looks to me like you have the title of the <td> tag incorrect - it's a link. I'm guessing that is not what you really want and that you want that link in the <a> tag

[cellarius]

I see - but that code does not originate from me - it's vB's own.

This is what's in my template:

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" style="margin-bottom:3px; margin-top: 0;">
<tr valign="bottom">
<td class="smallfont">&nbsp;</td>
<if condition="$pagenav"><td align="$stylevar[right]">$pagenav</td></if>
</tr>
</table>
The td and link come from the pagenav template (right at the end), which is completely unchanged in my testboard:
<if condition="$show['popups']"><td class="vbmenu_control" title="$address$address2"><a name="PageNav"></a></td></if>
</tr>
</table>
</div>And the td looks just the same in standard vB paginations. This is from standard forumdisplay:
<td class="vbmenu_control" title="forumdisplay.php?f=21&amp;order=desc"><a name="PageNav"></a></td>


The drop-arrow image seems to be added by script, it is not by css (or at least not that I see). In AdminCP you find this
/* ***** basic styles for multi-page nav elements */
.pagenav a { text-decoration: none; }
.pagenav td { padding: 2px 4px 2px 4px; }
and that's all I could find for .pagenav a in the vB css-files, too.

The script that does pagination seems to be
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_menu.js?v=380"></script>
which is properly called in the head of my popup.

I even am quite sure I have identified the part of code that adds the image, but why it doesn't show up escapes me :(

[cellarius]

bump.

[Lynne]

I still don't fully understand what the problem is, but..... perhaps you are missing the function that is needed? Have you tried including/requiring some other scripts in your page to see if that fixes the issue?

[cellarius]

Hm, those javascripts and stylesheets are called:

What I require in the php-script I already posted. I just cannot think what else I could include. Do you have any hints what I might try?

[Lynne]

I'm talking about including/requiring certain scripts in your php code, not the html output.

[cellarius]

I know - I just thought to give additional input, since the menu requires js, too, doesn't it?
As I wrote: what i'm requiring in the php code I already statet in this post (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1721506&postcount=4), third code block there. As I said, I'm at a loss what else might even be worth requiring, and would be grateful for suggestions.

[Lynne]

Is this the little thing you are missing? On this site, the code for it shows up in the footer. Are you using a standard footer template? Is the code for it there in the footer?

[cellarius]

Yes, that's exactly what's missing. And I have this code in my template - that's in the page footer normally, yes.

But that's only the code for the popup itself, isn't it? I don't even see the arrow to click to oben the popup...

P.S.: I you have the time and want to, I'd sent you access data to my forum, so you can have a look. That might be simpler than my humble explaining...

[Lynne]

Well, all I would do is find a page on vb.org that has that popup and then compare the html in that page to the html in your page. Or, in the case of the php part of the page, compare the working to non-working page and you are more capable of doing those comparisons than I since you have all the files.

[cellarius]

You're perfectly right, and though I did that about 200 times (at least it feels like that...) I always missed that oh so simple snippet of code right at the end:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
// Main vBulletin Javascript Initialization
vBulletin_init();
//-->
</script>Everything was there all the time - I just forgot to start the engine :o

If anybody should ever be so stupid, too, I thought I share the solution to the mystery :)

Thanks for your patience and help - what an emerassement this thread is (for me of course) :o:rolleyes:

[Lynne]

Oh wow. Amazing how a couple of lines can spoil the whole page! All that time spent.... but hey, now ya know!

Glad you got it figured out.
