Global Variables

Global variables of the JPOPUP Library help you consistently define the look-and-feel of all pop-up messages on your HTML page. In most cases, you'll set the global variables in the HEAD section of your page. For example, if you'd like to use blue text and blue 2-pixel wide border for all your messages, you can set the following variables in the HEAD of your page: 

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
jPopUpBorderColor="blue"
jPopUpBorderWidth=2
jPopUpFontColor="blue"
//-->
</script>
You can use the following global variables:
  • jPopUpStyle
  • jPopUpFontFace
  • jPopUpFontSize
  • jPopUpFontColor
  • jPopUpBgColor
  • jPopUpBorder
  • jPopUpBorderColor
  • jPopUpShadow
  • jPopUpShadowColor
  • jPopUpMargin
  • jPopUpRemoveDistant
  • jPopUpIconsDir
  • jPopUpReturnValue
