I was tasked with creating a pop-up survey for a project. Fairly simple whether I used the jQuery dialog or not so I added a “Thank you” dialog that displays the survey results with a lightweight, css-based bar chart just for fun.
Pop-up Behavior
Pop-up survey opens when page loads. Pop-ups on window.unload or window close are being blocked by most browsers due to abuse and overuse.
Cookie is set when survey submitted or user opts out (“No, thanks” click).
Closing dialog will not set cookie
All survey data is stored in a database and jQuery .post is used to shuttle the information back and forth.
