Window will only close once

[Chris]

Hi,

I have created a kendoWindow with this code

function CustomerPopupEditor() {
    $("#showCustomerEdit").append("<div id='window'></div>");
    var myWindow = $("#window").kendoWindow({
        width: "80%",
        height: "47%",
        title: "Customer",
        content: "/Customer/CustomerEditor",
        modal: true,
        actions: [
            "Close"
        ],
        close: function (e) {
            $("#window").empty();
        }
    }).data("kendoWindow");
    myWindow.center().open();
}

 

and I am closing the window using this code

function CloseTheWindow() {
    $("#window").data("kendoWindow").close();
}

this is called on a button click event, when I get this window open, it works fine, I click my Save button it closes it. However if I open it again and try to close it, the window won't close.

I am not sure if this is enough information or if I need to add more information.

 

Thanks

Hello Chris,

If the CustomerPopUpEditor function is invoked multiple times, it will create multiple Window widget instances with the same id, which is not recommended. I would suggest to include a conditional check if the widget already exists. If it has already been created, you could directly use it's instance to invoke API methods e.g. open() instead of re-creating it.
