show custom dialog on menuitemtemplate click

Question

I have to open a custom dialog box on click of menuitemtemplate.

I tried:

menuitemtemplate.ClientOnClickNavigateUrl ="javascript:sp.ui.modaldialog.showmodaldialog({url:'http:/sharedev/sitecreate.aspx'width:200px })"

But it shows only as a simple page, not as a popup dialog.

What should I do?

Answer 1

JavaScript is case sensitive, and you're also missing a comma in the options. This should work better:

menuitemtemplate.ClientOnClickNavigateUrl ="javascript:SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog({url:'http:/sharedev/sitecreate.aspx', width:200px });";

Answer 2

Use the ClientOnClickScript property instead of ClientOnClickNavigateUrl
