I have one problem with displaying blanket in IE7. Blanket covers only window height but not whole scroll height. In FF it is OK. This is link http://www.zlatni-kljuc.com/sl/index.php (you click on 'Rezultati')... Thank you, greetings from Croatia. :) Hi, first script is really great…

The script is EXACTLY what I need and I've tested it OK on Firefox 2+3, Netscape 9, IE6+7 and Safari. Only thing I don't like is that the popup is shown in the middle of the entire page, not the middle of the page's visible area. When the link to show your pop is on the top of a large page, it will appear far below the current page area and the user shall have to scroll in order to locate the popup. To fix this behaviour and open the popup in the [b]middle of the window[/b], popUpDiv_height should be set to this value: window.innerHeight/2-150; (where 150 is the popup height) Also, those weird french quotes should be replaced by straight quotes, but that's simply a detail. Script is great, thanks!! Well I can’t believe I finally found what I wanted by typing the correct words on Goooogle!!!

I'm old and brain damaged, and slow, but once I figured out how to get in there and change stuff to do what I wanted people think I'm a bleeding genius... Thank you! Example: Driving two separate iFrames at: http://chips.ourspecial.net/ and all the different Radar popups at http://ourspecial.net/test1/osnrss1.htm I think I disregarded the blanket effects, don't remember off hand just how, but I pulled them in to eliminate the visible effect... anyway it presents a super display, and is very effective! Thanks again! And if you've got any suggestions I'd appreciate it. Mike ___________ Patrick, I have been using this script for months now on a few pages.

I modified your JavaScript file so I could pass width and height of the image to both the blanket and popup, allowing me to center the image on the screen. I just forgot to pass the width and height to the first onClick! Thanks for your help, it's a wicked component. Hi Patrick,
