<p>
This page shows you how you can easily integrate the charts with other external Javascript libraries. This particular example
adds a context menu to the chart, of which the only option is to show a login dialog. This could, for example, be used to
allow logging in to an admin area.
</p>
<p>
The dialog doesn't need to require user input - it could just be a static "Please wait..." type dialog, which is shown while a
subsequent page loads that takes a few seconds.
</p>
<p>
The ModalDialog was originally an external library, however it's now part of the RGraph package. It's also covered by the
RGraph license - so if you have an <a href="licensing.html">RGraph license</a>, then the ModalDialog is part of that.

<p>
If you're interested in using this modal dialog, then you'll probably also want the CSS that styles it. This can be found in the
"css" directory.
</p>
<a name="msie"></a>
<h3>Note about Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and the ModalDialog</h3>
<p>
Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 only supports fixed positioning in strict rendering mode, therefore you must specify a DTD
when using this browser. Eg:
</p>
<pre class="code">
<!DOCTYPE html >
</pre>
<a name="hiding"></a>
<h3>Hiding the ModalDialog</h3>
<p>
To hide the ModalDialog (from a "Cancel" button for example), you can use the Close() method:
</p>
<pre class="code">
<input type="reset" value="Cancel" onclick="ModalDialog.Close()">
</pre>
<a name="customising"></a>
<h3>Customising the ModalDialog</h3>
<p>
You can customise the appearance of the ModalDialog by using three CSS classes, which are documented <a href="css.html">here</a>.
This page customises the dialog slightly by changing the shadow X/Y offsets:
</p>
<pre class="code">
<style>
/*
* These are the CSS classes that you can use to customise the appearance of the ModalDialog. If you're trying to
* override something which the scripts set, then because of the ordering you may need to use the "! important"
* modifier.
*/
/**
* This is the semi-opaque background
*/
.ModalDialog_background {
}
/**
* This is the dialog itself
*/
.ModalDialog_dialog {
-webkit-box-shadow: gray 0 0 15px ! important;
-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 15px gray ! important;
box-shadow: 0 0 15px gray ! important;
}
/**
* This is gray bar at the top of the dialog
*/
.ModalDialog_topbar {
}
</style>
</pre>
<a name="integration"></a>
<h3>ModalDialog integration</h3>
<p>
To integrate the ModalDialog look at the sample code above (the key line is where the context menu is defined). The method you should call is <b>ModalDialog.Show(id, width)</b>.
The <i>id</i> is the <i>id</i> of the layer to use. Only the <i>.innerHTML</i> is used, not the layer itself, so it can be hidden by
setting the display CSS <i>display</i> property to <i>none</i>. The <i>width</i> is a number which is used as the width of the dialog.
</p>
<p>
The only library needed for the ModalDialog to work is <i>RGraph.modaldialog.js</i> - you do not need to use
<i>RGraph.common.js</i>. This makes for far smaller download requirements.
</p>
<a name="covering"></a>
<h3>Covering the scroll bars</h3>
<p>
Normally, a regular DIV lives inside the browser and cannot cover the scroll bars. There is however a way to achieve
this but it does mean that restructuring your website may be necessary, and it's done by using an IFRAME. The following
steps are involved:
</p>
<ol>
<li style="margin-top: 0">The index page of your website creates an IFRAME and sets it to cover the entire window.</li>
<li style="margin-top: 0">This IFRAME then loads the website.</li>
<li style="margin-top: 0">The DIV then covers the top-most window.</li></li>
</ol>
<p style="margin-bottom: 50px">
There is an example of this technique <a href="iframe-setup.html"><b>here</b></a>
</p>
<!-- This is the popup dialog-->
