I thought I would try some modals in EasyWeb... http://roddymckay.com/EasyWeb/modal.html Looks easy enough - doesn't it? EasyWeb will require you to think in 3D and ask the question, "Position relative to what?" I think this one will have to go in the advanced manual rather than the intermediate one. ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

I did do it in iWeb... http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iweb-snippets/modal.html ... which is fairly straight forward. This is a little harder... http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iweb-snippets/popup-movie.html I haven't tried this one in EasyWeb but will if anybody wants to know if and how it can be done. I just went back and looked to see how I did it and I used an iframe. It may be easier to do the same in EasyWeb because the problem I had was with the relative positioning of the popups on the page due to the way that EW sets positioning info for all the divs so that we can drag them around. These features are actually a lot easier to achieve when you code your web pages rather than use a drag and drop app! Maybe someday there will be a widget for it? ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

iWeb's positional code is very similar to EasyWeb when you use EasyWeb's centered layout. The left aligned and dynamic don't use relative positioning within absolute divs. That being said, although I haven't look at the code at all, I don't see why this would cause an issue to show popup windows like this. We use prettyPhoto for the image gallery which does a similar thing. ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |

The popups (or drop downs in my case) are positioned relative to the div which contains the links. In the page I demoed, the div is over to the right so the drop downs were too far to the right and I had to adjust things to get it to look right. It's difficult to explain but the drop downs were also appearing from the header area and dropping down rather than appearing from the very top of the window. It had me going for a while to get it sorted and you also need to be careful to make sure everything has the appropriate z-index. ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!
