简单的 jQuery 弹出的例子

In this tutorial, I'm going to share how to create a simple modal window with jQuery. I like jQuery, it makes everything so simple and so easy. In case you don't know what's modal window. You can click here . That's an example of a modal window.

In this website, I'm using facebox (inspiration from facebook). Others, such as lightbox, thickbox, multibox, litebox...... it's too many of them and they all are having different features.

Right, let's start, this example will show you how to create a modal window that will display the content of a DIV #ID.

My objectives are:

Able to search the whole html document for A tag NAME="modal" attribute, so when users click on it, it will display the content of DIV #ID in the HREF attribute in Modal Window.A mask that will fill the whole screen.Modal windows that is simple and easy to modify.

1. HTML code and A tag attributes

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 <!-- #dialog is the id of a DIV defined in the code below --> < a href = "#dialog" name = "modal" >Simple Modal Window</ a >   < div id = "boxes" >               <!-- #customize your modal window here -->        < div id = "dialog" class = "window" >          < b >Testing of Modal Window</ b > |                     <!-- close button is defined as close class -->          < a href = "#" class = "close" >Close it</ a >        </ div >               <!-- Do not remove div#mask, because you'll need it to fill the whole screen -->        < div id = "mask" ></ div > </ div >

2. CSS code

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 <style>   /* Z-index of #mask must lower than #boxes .window */ #mask {    position : absolute ;    z-index : 9000 ;    background-color : #000 ;    display : none ; }      #boxes .window {    position : absolute ;    width : 440px ;    height : 200px ;    display : none ;    z-index : 9999 ;    padding : 20px ; }     /* Customize your modal window here, you can add background image too */ #boxes #dialog {    width : 375px ;    height : 203px ; } </style>

3. Javascript

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 <script>   $(document).ready( function () {         //select all the a tag with name equal to modal      $( 'a[name=modal]' ).click( function (e) {          //Cancel the link behavior          e.preventDefault();          //Get the A tag          var id = $( this ).attr( 'href' );                 //Get the screen height and width          var maskHeight = $(document).height();          var maskWidth = $(window).width();                 //Set height and width to mask to fill up the whole screen          $( '#mask' ).css({ 'width' :maskWidth, 'height' :maskHeight});                     //transition effect              $( '#mask' ).fadeIn(1000);             $( '#mask' ).fadeTo( "slow" ,0.8);                  //Get the window height and width          var winH = $(window).height();          var winW = $(window).width();                           //Set the popup window to center          $(id).css( 'top' ,  winH/2-$(id).height()/2);          $(id).css( 'left' , winW/2-$(id).width()/2);                 //transition effect          $(id).fadeIn(2000);             });             //if close button is clicked      $( '.window .close' ).click( function (e) {          //Cancel the link behavior          e.preventDefault();          $( '#mask, .window' ).hide();      });                 //if mask is clicked      $( '#mask' ).click( function () {          $( this ).hide();          $( '.window' ).hide();      });                });   </script>

It's very straight forward and easy to understand. Remember, you need to include jQuery framework.

4. Launch modal window with Javascript

Due to popular demand :), I have an example for it. The concept is simple. I wrapped the modal window script inside a function, and then you will able to call the modal window using javascript function call.

Yes, you will able to load the modal window on page load as well :)

1 2 3 4 $(document).ready( function () {    //id is the ID for the DIV you want to display it as modal window    launchWindow(id); });

Launch Modal Window with Javascript

And, if you want to close the modal window on key press, any keys you want, you can add the following function.

1 2 3 4 5 6 $(document).keyup( function (e) {    if (e.keyCode == 13) {      $( '#mask' ).hide();      $( '.window' ).hide();    } });

I think I should make another post about modal window. :)
