I was having a similar problem trying to popup a modal window over an existing modal window (in my case, I was popping up a “Save Changes?” type confirmation window over an existing modal “dialog”).

I updated to 2.6, but was still having problems with a “modal over a modal”.

Dimitar’s solution provided here will work to fix that situation with a slight modification:
– you will have to set the z-index to be higher. I don’t know the exact # required, but 30000 worked for me.
– set the z-index for just your confirmation window, not all “.jqx-window” class’s

So something like this:

$("#firstWidnow").jqxWindow({ width: 300, height: 300, isModal: true, autoOpen: false });
$("#confirmationMsgWindow").jqxWindow({ width: 300, height: 300, isModal: true, autoOpen: false });
$("#confirmationMsgWindow").css("z-index", "30000");

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your EXTREMELY fast response!

My hope was to use the HTML dragging events so that it worked with a fair amount of other code that I already have in place. Among other things the target recipient is expecting a HTML dragEvent (rather than a jqx one) to process the event. The HTML code uses the “dataTransfer” mechanism and I was hoping to setup the same thing.

Specifically it currently does something like this:

ondragstart=’event.dataTransfer.setData(“SourceItem”, sourceItemID);’

and then later

ondrop=’alert(event.dataTransfer.getData(“SourceItem”));’

Obviously I could add support to my drop target to accept either type of drag sources, but in the interests of simplicity and minimizing code I was hoping to not have too. If it is not possible, or overly complex to achieve a workaround I will just go ahead and do that 🙂

Thanks!
Jake
