ModalBox for Update Records
What is ModalBox?
ModalBox is a JavaScript technique for creating modern (Web 2.0-style) modal dialogues or even wizards (sequences of dialogues) without using conventional popups and page reloads. And yes, it may also be useful for showing bigger versions of images. :)
ModalBox is built with pure JavaScript and is based on Sam Stephenson's excellent Prototype JavaScript Framework and valid XHTML/CSS. ModalBox uses AJAX to load content.
ModalBox Features
- Web 2.0-ready. ModalBox uses industry-standard libraries ? prototype and script.aculo.us.
NEW! Ver 1.4 allows you to easily create custom Ruby helpers for using ModalBox with RJS. - AJAX pages loading. ModalBox uses AJAX instead of deprecated
iframefor content loading. It's also more secure ? you can't access pages which are not on your host. - Browser and platform independent. Since most of modern browsers use popup blockers, it's hard to find another way to create 100% browser-compatible modal dialogs.

- NEW! Keystrokes support. Use ESC key to close ModalBox.
- Customizable look&feel. Use CSS to make ModalBox look like you want.
