So here is an unusual one. I have a popup dialog search box/partial page on a project that worked before we upgraded to webmaker 4 (via Bizflow 12 upgrade). No matter what I try the popup wouldn't work.
So I deleted it completely (backed up of course), and just added a simple popup dialog box activated by a button. Same problem, with a twist. The popup works in the page preview, but doesn't when you run the app from the test dashboard. Comparing the html, the preview creates the div for the popup correctly in the html. However, the full app does not create the div for the pop group in the html. So, somehow, the full app does not build the html correctly. I have another project with the same basic popup/search that does work. I have compared everything between them and cannot find any problems. Again, the preview works, the dashboard (deployed) app doesn't, neither does published app.
Please help.

RE: Popup Dialog not Working
That does sound strange. If the popup dialog is working ok on the preview I would expect it to also work once deployed or published.
Are you getting any JavaScript errors when viewing the deployed/published page?
One thing to try might be to do a clean publish (from the Deploy & Publish screen) or delete the relevant webapp from the .../runtime/tomcat-runtime/webapps directory before deploying. This should ensure that there aren+?+?+?t any old files lying around that could be causing problems.
If you are still having issues it might be worth trying a different dojo based control (such as a filtering select) to see if that works correctly. This should help to start narrowing down the cause of the issue.
