Hi

Is it pssible to make an index page appear as a pop up.... so instead of clicking index.php?page=2 and it opening in a new page it will appear as a half size page pop up


hope that makes sense

thanx

G'day Mate,

It could be done but it's messy :shock: It means adding onclick functions to the url's etc. And sometimes the .css path and anything else that the popup would need to function. :(

The biggest problem would be popup-blockers not allowing the popup - so it kind of defeats the purpose of doing it in the first place. ;)

thanks for the info.... would it be better to use javascript to create an open window..?

something like this
Code: [Hide] [Select]
<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
window.open('{U_BIRTHDAYS_POPUP}', '_phpbbbirthday', 'HEIGHT=225,resizable=yes,WIDTH=400');
//-->

though I do not know exactly how that works...or is that still a pop up whill will be blocked

thanks again

Though I have made a few popups for .html files, this one's better left for the .php guru's to answer I think, because there's a lot more involved. ;)

got this working by making a new page in CMS and making the function for that page open using simple_header probably a messy work around but no real changes to any major code and I can add blocks etc to the pages..
