# 2 03-06-2007, 01:15 AM

and at that, the tabs of my dialog are starting on top, not on bottom as usal.. i mean they look like they are 'hanging' not like they 'standing', you know what i mean? :-P

There's a config option to set the tabs to be on top. Also, with dialogs, you must render them to document.body or they won't work properly.

thanks you for you answer jeff!

but i still have questions, might be sound silly to you but..

iam creating the tabs from existing markup with autoTaps, so how can i get the tab object? i try with tabs=dialog.getTabs(); tabs.tabPosition='bottom'; but it doesnt work.

second question, how do i render the dialog to document body? could you please help me with that? whould be very nice, thanks jeff!

yeah should be working with d.getTabs()... but it doesnt ://

It's a config option when creating the dialog. It's "tabPosition" (with a value of "top"), I think.

When i say render to document.body, I mean the first parameter shouldn't be an id, but document.body, instead.

ok, thanks again for quick answer.

but if im using document.body instead of the id of my dialog from markup, there only comes a gray overlay over the whole site... and i didnt understand how the BasicDialog-call should know from where to build the menu.. hmmm??

sorry that im acting like a lil child, but i try and i try but im too stupid to get it... damn :///

If you're building from markup, you'll have to make sure that the div you're using is a child of the body and not nested deep in the markup somewhere.

look, this is what i mean...

the tabs are 'hanging' from top like bats... and the dialog is behind my layout. 2 problems and it seems that i cant solve them by myself :///

        
createDialog : function(){
            nsr_dialog = new Ext.BasicDialog("newstudyrequest-dlg", { 
                    autoTabs:true,
                    tabPosition:"top",
										title:"New Study Request",
                    width:500,
                    height:500,
                    shadow:true,
                    minWidth:350,
                    minHeight:350,
                    closable:true
            });
