RE:Login on lightbox

Hello,

this is interesting requirement.
Currently, it seems to be rather difficult task and question is if it's even possible. There were some attempts on similar functionality e.g. with BizForms, however the logon controls are quite specific... this certainly needs further discussion with our developers.
I will let you know when we have some more information or conclusions about this.

Regards,
Zdenek

RE:Login on lightbox

Hello Daniel,

I'm back with some info and question..

It is not possible to put logon form in Lightbox (in particular). However, it should be possible in jQuery-based ThickBox.

Have you tried something in that direction already?
Do you especially need the lightbox, or any "lightbox-like" tool would be ok for your aim?

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Zdenek.

RE:Login on lightbox

Hi, it's been a while...

One way you could go relied on using ASPX page template for the page and adding a scriptmanager to allow UpdatePanel:

<asp:ScriptManager ID="scrManager" runat="server"></asp:ScriptManager>

and add the following div:

<div id="popUpForm" style="display: none;">
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="updForm" runat="server" UpdateMode="Always">
<ContentTemplate>
// place the login control here
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
</div>

you would also need to ensure that the logon form user control (webpart) is placed in the updatepanel area..

I've also discovered other options I'm currently discussing, so I'll return with more examples...

Thanks in advance for your patience.

Regards,
Zdenek

A good pop-up control in the Kentico CMS would be a good addition. If there is one there already, I haven't seen it...I'll look around a bit more.

The easiest implementation would be a pop-up window that accepts a different page as a property perhaps, and then the window itself just implements an iframe.

Personally if I was trying to implement a pop-up login, this is probably the easiest way to do it...just throw your login control on a different page, and iframe it in...call the window close upon succesful login.
