popup window

$(selector).popupWindow({options});

jQuery plugin (jquery.popupWindow.js) used to create popup windows.

Example 1

Open yahoo.com in a popup window (800x500) positioned 50 pixels from the top and left side of the screen.

Example 2

Open a popup, centered over the top of the browser, using the same window. In order to have popup windows re-use the same window the element the invokes the popup needs to have the same name attribute value. In this example, I use the name "windowX" to identify that both links use the same window.

open google.com | open cnn.com, using the same window used to open google.com
