Dialog

Overview

Dialogs are temporary, modal UI overlay that generally provide contextual app information or require user confirmation/input. In most cases, Dialogs block interactions with the web page or application until being explicitly dismissed, and often request action from the user. They are primarily used for lightweight creation or edit tasks, and simple management tasks.

Also available in Fabric React

Using this Component

  1. Confirm that you have references to Fabric's CSS and JavaScript on your page:

    			<link rel="stylesheet" href="fabric.min.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="fabric.components.min.css" />
<script src="fabric.min.js"></script>

  2. Copy the HTML from one of the samples below into your page. For example:

    <div class="docs-DialogExample-default">
  <div class="ms-Dialog">
    <div class="ms-Dialog-title">All emails together</div>
    <div class="ms-Dialog-content">
      <p class="ms-Dialog-subText">Your Inbox has changed. No longer does it include favorites, it is a singular destination for your emails.</p>
      <div class="ms-CheckBox">
        <input tabindex="-1" type="checkbox" class="ms-CheckBox-input">
        <label role="checkbox" class="ms-CheckBox-field" tabindex="0" aria-checked="false" name="checkboxa">
          <span class="ms-Label">Option1</span> 
        </label>
      </div>
      <div class="ms-CheckBox">
        <input tabindex="-1" type="checkbox" class="ms-CheckBox-input">
        <label role="checkbox" class="ms-CheckBox-field" tabindex="0" aria-checked="false" name="checkboxa">
          <span class="ms-Label">Option2</span> 
        </label>
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="ms-Dialog-actions">
      <button class="ms-Button ms-Dialog-action ms-Button--primary">
        <span class="ms-Button-label">Save</span> 
      </button>
      <button class="ms-Button ms-Dialog-action">
        <span class="ms-Button-label">Cancel</span> 
      </button>
    </div>
  </div>
  <button class="ms-Button docs-DialogExample-button">Open Dialog</button>
  <label class="docs-DialogExample-label"></label>
</div>

  3. Add the following <script> tag to your page, below the references to Fabric's JS, to instantiate all Dialog components on the page:

    <script type="text/javascript">
  var DialogElements = document.querySelectorAll(".ms-Dialog");
  var DialogComponents = [];
  for (var i = 0; i < DialogElements.length; i++) {
    (function() {
      DialogComponents[i] = new fabric['Dialog'](DialogElements[i]);
    }());
  }
</script>

  4. Replace the sample HTML content with your content.
