There are situations where it is desirable to pop up some additional information, such as information about page author, a sitemap or an auxiliary menu. But usual popup windows are not up to the task anymore. They might be blocked by browsers and generally are an annoyance to the user.
It is better to show a box with this information directly on the page, partially hiding the page content. The javascript sample on this page helps to achieve that. It borrows some ideas from AJAX technology.
This Popup window replacement script will create a box that will be shown on the page when visitor clicks a hyperlink. So, It will not be blocked by browsers and will not annoy visitors as normal popup windows usually do. Can be used to show page additional information, such as author bio, page history or a sitemap. Gracefully degrades if the browser has Javascript turned off or DOM is not supported.
