ject: Re: [WiX-users] How to continue on close of modal popup?
In the set of actions that SpawnDialog is a part of, continue with further
actions that either end there or move onto the next dialog (based on the
value of the property you set in the warning dialog).

I have a UI dialog that I want to present a "warning" popup when a field is
blank. The dialog is launched with SpawnDialog and says something like "Do you
really want the field empty?" There are two buttons labeled "Yes" and "No".
If the user picks "No", it's easy enough to close the popup an
them in their own
feature because they don't function without one of the three applications. It
doesn't make sense to have separate installers for these applications because a
common scenario is to install all three on the same machine, and the common
components are quite large.

here's the SelectionNoItems event,
but it only handles the case where there are no items in the selection box,
which is pretty much never.
Ideas?

Hi Peter,
Thank you very much! The twin dialog works perfectly!
IMHO - Since this is a limitation with MSI, this is probably something that
should be highlighted in the Msi or Wix docs.

Also, you should make sure the file you're editing is parsable as XML. My
guess is that an aspx file is not. You would be better off moving the item
you're trying to change to a setting in the web.config. You can definately
edit the web.config as xml.

I had similar issues. Some of which I was able to resolve by making sure that
the reference to the web site had an IP specified - even if it's the wildcard:
Without the IP="*" - IIS 7 and IIS 5.1 gave me all kinds of strange issues.
Funny that IIS 6 didn't mind it missing.
