You can call another view in a popup/modal windows using bootstrap as follows:




<?php

            Modal::begin([

                'toggleButton' => [

                    'label' => '<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus"></i> Add',

                    'class' => 'btn btn-success'

                ],

                'closeButton' => [

                  'label' => 'Close',

                  'class' => 'btn btn-danger btn-sm pull-right',

                ],

                'size' => 'modal-lg',

            ]);

            $myModel = new \frontend\models\SomeModel;

            echo $this->render('/someview/create', ['model' => $myModel]);

            Modal::end();

        ?>
