Hi all

I’m completely new to yii framework and i’ve been trying to display a gridview row data in a jquery ui dialog to no avail, so far i have this code but i don’t know how to call the dialog or what is the correct approach to get this done:


  <?php \yii\widgets\Pjax::begin(); ?>

    <?= GridView::widget([

        'dataProvider' => $dataProvider,

        'filterModel' => $searchModel,

        'columns' => [

            ['class' => 'yii\grid\SerialColumn'],


            'code',

            'name',

            [

                'class' => 'yii\grid\DataColumn',

                'attribute' => 'population',

                'label' => 'Population',

                'enableSorting' => true,

                //'encodeLabel' => true,

                'format' => 'raw',

                'value' => function($data){

                    return $data->population;

                }

            ],

            'capital',


            ['class' => 'yii\grid\ActionColumn',

                'template' => '{view}',

                'buttons' => [

                    'view' => function($url, $model) {

                        //How to call the dialog from here ?...

                    }

                ]

            ],

        ],

        'layout' => '{summary}{items}{errors}{pager}',


    ]); ?>

    <?php \yii\widgets\Pjax::end(); ?>


<?php Dialog::begin([

    'id'=>'dialogo',

    'clientOptions' => [

        'autoOpen' => false,

        'modal' => true,

        'resizable' => false,

    ],

]);


echo 'Data should be here...';


Dialog::end();?>

I’d appreciate if you point me in the right direction to accomplish this since i’ve been surfing the web and couldn’t find any example related in yii 2.0

Thanks in advance
