Technical Web Question: Hidden Elements

Hello, 

I have a question related to the technical side of QB Online and how it was developed.

Can I understand how the pop-up elements from any transaction type element, let's say for example payment aren't visible but available in the browser/active?
What am I referring by this, once I open the payment all the pop-ups that you receive when you try to delete it or void or anything, if you inspect the page they are loaded and available, and I am not able to find any attributes referred to the state, such as visibility from visible or not (it is always visible), or foreground or active. Pretty much the elements are always there but you can't see them. I only saw a single difference when you actually see it, the position of that particular element changes so if you can't see it the height=0 and width=0 but when you can see it those values change to some specific numbers, is this the only way that those elements are made visible or not?

I attached a picture with an example, so those values when you can see the object has values, and when you can't see it the values go to 0, I wasn't able to find other differences so I would be very happy if somebody can point out if there are more.

I appreciate adding your initial post here in the Community, CristianUlmeanu. Let me share insights about the pop-up message you receive when you open the payment transaction.

 

You should not set the closing date until you're done making entries in that period. Once the close books option in QuickBooks is enabled, transactions dated on or before the set date will receive a pop-up message to notify you that the transaction will affect your account balances. 

 

Check this article for more details: Close your books in QuickBooks Online.

 

On the other note, regarding elements and values concerns, Intuit has a separate forum called Intuit Developer Forum. I suggest you post this question to this page and get an answer from one of our product experts handling this type of concern.

 

It'll always be my pleasure to help if you've got other questions aside from working with pop-ups in QuickBooks.
