Details

The popup view of the next screen displayed uses the E-Migration DHTML windowing framework, which is based on iFrames, not new browser windows.  This provides a more natural windowing environment as well as avoiding any issues with popup blockers.

 

Typically, when a standard action is entered, for example, a Single-Click selection, the entire page will be replaced with the displayed screen.

 

By setting PopupIsDefault on the FieldMap, you can enable a user being able to view multiple actions in popups.  This lets the user act on one row, close the popup and act on another row.
