Popup closes and opens again

[Marcelo]

I don't know why my popups, which were working ok before today, now are automatically reopening again after I close them. And It repeats this behavior many times - I close it, it reopens instantly. Please, advise.

Hi Marcelo,

Seems there are some problems with events. Please check on what event you call Action "Show Popup".

[Marcelo]

Hi, Katya. I am using javascript:

Appery.navigateTo('dialogPopup', {
transition: 'none'
});

Today I changed from "Tiggzi.navigateTo" to "Appery.navigateTo" as an attempt to fix the issue, but it makes no difference.

Additional info. When I hit the button on popup, I am using tap event and closePopup action to close the popup.

[Kateryna Grynko]

On what event do you call the code above?

[Marcelo]

On click event of a button. Humm... should it be tap event? Could it be the reason? I am going to test the tap event right now.

[Marcelo]

I think I understood what is happening. I noticed that as soon as the popup closes, the button that initially loaded the popup catches the same click/tap event that closed the popup, causing the popup to open again. If I carefully touch the button on the popup screen, the effect does not happen. Interesting... now I have to figure it out how to prevent the propagation.

Marcelo, we had the same problem. We expect that the '.on('click', '#button' , function() Appery.navigationTo('dialogPopup'. {transition: 'none'}); is defined multiple times.

To solve it we did:
Create a function that defines as a singleton function once the definition of the on_click call back functions and then invokes it once when this functions is created at 'on_load'

Let us know if this fix it for you too.

Joop, thank you very much for sharing your solution.
We have fixed it some how (the guy that worked on it is travelling), but I believe it had something to do with your point.
