In this forth Alchemy Training Video I’ll show you how easy it is to create a popup window for your plugin.

Alchemy Training Video 4: Creating a popup window from Content Bloom

The code used in this video is also pasted below in the event you’d like to copy this directly into your own project.

Note: Just change the SchemaDocumentation.aspx url

    execute: function (selection) {
            var p = this.properties;
            var selectedItem = this._getSelectedItem(selection);
            var url = "${ViewsUrl}SchemaDocumentation.aspx#selectedItem=" + selectedItem;
            var parameters = "width=650px, height=550px";
            var args = { popupType: Tridion.Controls.PopupManager.Type.EXTERNAL };

            p.popup = $popupManager.createExternalContentPopup(url, parameters, args);
            $evt.addEventHandler(p.popup, "close", this.getDelegate(this.closePopup));
            p.popup.open();
    }
