Using the Dialog plugin is fine in smart client, but in web client fails with error to console:

"Can’t use the dialog plugin in a none Swing thread/environment

I’m using Servoy 4.1, build 562, Safari browser under OS X

The dialog plugin isn’t supported in webclient (yet), but some users created their own dialogs to use in web, for example [this one](http://www.servoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=57469#p57469).

thank you.

Is there documentation or thread somewhere that lists which plugins work on the web browser?

It’s five years later. I am seeing same error in newest Servoy:

```auto
Wrapped java.lang.RuntimeException: Can't use the dialog plugin in a none Swing thread/environment (C:\Users\Singtech\servoy_workspace\sergei_factory\forms\frm_task_comment_lst.js#80)

```

Hi Sergei,

Yes dialog plugin is not supported in web client. But we do have an alternative to it. We can use the dialog module which works in both web and smart client.

You can download the module from [here](https://www.servoyforge.net/projects/mod-dialog) and attach the same as module to your solution.

Find the details in the wiki page of this module.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
