Dialog

Dialog

Dialogs are similar to Portlets, but are specifically used for creating, editing, and presenting information in a transactional, rather than informational way.

Description Currently, dialog names must contain a namespace element of "mda". It can be anywhere in the name. This will likely change in the future. e.g. ai:mda:TagDialog Properties
