jQuery Popup - Customize the Content

Specifying the Content Template

The example below shows how to create a template consisting of static (text) and dynamic (the Button UI component) content.

jQuery
HTML
$(function() {
    $("#popupContainer").dxPopup({
        title: "Popup Title",
        visible: true,
        contentTemplate: function (contentElement) {
            contentElement.append(
                $("<p />").text("Static Content"),
                $("<div />").attr("id", "buttonContainer").dxButton({ 
                    text: "Click me",
                    onClick: function (e) {
                        // ...
                    }
                });
            )
        }
    });
});
Angular
HTML
TypeScript
<dx-popup
    title="Popup Title"
    [(visible)]="isPopupVisible"
    contentTemplate="popupContent">
    <div *dxTemplate="let data of 'popupContent'">
        <p>Static content</p>
        <dx-button
            text="Click me"
            (onClick)="buttonClick($event)">
        </dx-button>
    </div>
</dx-popup>
import { DxPopupModule, DxButtonModule } from "devextreme-angular";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    isPopupVisible: boolean = true;
    buttonClick (e) {
        // ...
    }

@NgModule({

            <DxButton
                text="Click me"
                @click="buttonClick"
            />
        </template>
    </DxPopup>
</template>

<script>

    data() {

            isPopupVisible: true
        };
    },
    methods: {

Switching Templates On the Fly

If you need to render different templates depending on a specific condition, define them inside the Popup container using the DevExtreme dxTemplate markup component. You can switch the templates on the fly by changing the contentTemplate property's value.

jQuery
HTML
JavaScript
<div id="changeTemplateButton"></div>
<div id="popupContainer">
    <div data-options="dxTemplate: { name: 'template1' }">
        <p>First template</p>
    </div>
    <div data-options="dxTemplate: { name: 'template2' }">
        <p>Second template</p>
    </div>
</div>
$(function() {
    const popup = $("#popupContainer").dxPopup({
        title: "Popup Title",
        visible: true,
        contentTemplate: "template1"
    }).dxPopup("instance");

    $("#changeTemplateButton").dxButton({
        text: "Change the Template", 
        onClick: function (e) {
            const currentTemplate = popup.option("contentTemplate");
            popup.option("contentTemplate", currentTemplate == "template1" ? "template2" : "template1");
            popup.show();
        } 
    });
});

Add Scrolling

The Popup component always displays a native scrollbar when the height of the Popup's content is greater than that of the Popup.

You can also implement a scrollbar that belongs to the ScrollView component. This implementation is more flexible. For example, you can enable right-to-left representation or scroll the content to a specific position. For more information about the available options, refer to the ScrollView API section.

To implement this solution, follow the steps below:

  1. Wrap the content in the ScrollView component and place it in the Popup container.

  2. Set the height and width of the ScrollView to 100% of the popup content area. To enable this functionality, wrap content into the ScrollView component and set its height and width to 100% of the Popup content area:

jQuery
index.js
$(function () {
    $("#popup").dxPopup({
        contentTemplate: () => {
            const content = $("<div />");
            content.dxScrollView({
                height: "100%",
                width: "100%"
            });
            return content;
        },
        // ...
    });
});
