Hi all - I need to do an overlay with something that supports ajax/remote html. There''s lots of options and quite a few rails plugins. Some seem out of date however. Any suggestions on which one is "best" where "best" is defined as easy to implement, works in all browsers, supports ajax or remote html. Thanks! -philip --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I''ve been in touch with Craig Ambrose and let him know there were some ''problems'' with Redbox. I''m hopeful he''ll whip out something real quick ;-). Seriously though... I''ve got Redbox working except for the automatic positioning. There seems to be some code missing. I specifically queried Craig about that. In the meantime, I''ve been working today on getting the positioning working. If you''re intersted, I could send you what I come up with. I''ll warn you, though... JS is _not_ one of my strengths ;-) Best regards, Bill --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

If you are willing to use JQuery then http://handlino.com/blog/2008/02/26/57/ is a good plugin. I''m on 2.1 and 2.2 for the projects where I''m using this plugin. I installed jrails and replaced prototype completely.. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I should have clarified no-jquery. I love jquery, but the site uses a lot of Prototype and I''d rather not double up on JS libraries. I found one and got it working. Seems to do the right thing :) http://code.google.com/p/rb-lightbox-plugin/ Not too much of a pain to implement either. centers, works in IE/ Firefox. There do seem to be a lot more jquery based ones. Will have to go that route right off the bat next time :) -philip --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Ive been using this on my latest project and found it to be very stable, easy to style, easy to use.. http://famspam.com/facebox Good Luck On Nov 18, 2:04 pm, Philip Hallstrom <phi...-LSG90OXdqQE@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Hi all - > > I need to do an overlay with something that supports ajax/remote > html.

I have a site with a fair amount of prototype too, and am wondering about integrating jquery for only the login popup modal box. Isn''t it possible to only load jquery for the login partial when someone clicks to login, so that I am not doubling up on JS libraries on other pages?
