Submit form within popup? (Problems.)

djh_

I have a custom upload plugin which I want to run in a popup. It doesn't use any of vanilla's upload classes because I want it to use ImageMagick rather than GD, and I couldn't figure out enough of the code to change Vanilla's default behaviour. But anyway...

When I submit the upload form (in the popup), the php file containing the upload functions and output HTML is run in an invisible iframe. None of the javascript controlling the elements in the upload form works, either, whereas it does if the upload form is opened as its own page. Ideally I'd want the entire operation to occur within the popup as it would normally.

What would be the best way to approach this? Thanks.

How are you loading the page in a pop-up? Is the popup part of the root document (inserted directly in the DOM) or is it inserted via iframe?

The only way I could fathom was to put a link to the page in a div and add this to the head:

    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('a.UploaderButton').popup();
    });

Adding the class "Popup" to any link will automatically load its content in the modal popup.

When working with popups, you have a be a little more explicit to make sure certain assumptions are covered. Mind sharing a link to your site, or the source of your plugin?
