JavaScript/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>

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();
        } 
    });
});
