I built a form for my website that opens inside a highslide popup, and this form has multiple steps. However, some steps are longer than others and have more text. Is there a way to have the highslide window automatically resize itself to the exact height of the content when it's done loading?
I've been looking, and I've seen people recommend hs.reflow or hs.resizeTo, but I have been unable to get either of them to work properly.
Huzzah, seems as though I have stumbled on the solution. Simply add parent.window.hs.getExpander().reflow(); to the highslide popup, and remove any definition of height concerning the popup.

I don't think this is possible but I thought I'd ask anyway.
I'm building a Wordpress plugin for sharing buttons and Buffer doesn't have a mechanism to return to the site if you locate in the same window, so I built out a nice popup that will fetch the add link. This works great except that the buffer add page creates a modal dialog that is positioned 100px from the top.
This creates a nasty 100px space above the dialog. See here:
I was wondering if it's possible to change the css inside that popup window, or perhaps find a way to have the window directly access just the div with a specific id?
The modal is draggable as well, so maybe create a drag action to drag it up to the top?
Any ideas would be helpful.
--EDIT--
Adding Fiddle as requested.
Not sure what the size of the window will be when you're not logged into Buffer, but you'll get the general idea of how the spacing is messed up at the top ... maybe.

I am very much interested to do something similar to what gmail compose pop up does on the single page
I have no idea how to implement such a thing. Please give me directions about how to do such things
I am interested in building it using AngularJS
P.S Sorry for a broad question, but I really don't know what this is called and don't know what to Google for either
You can construct a popup like that very easily using a regular div element and some CSS. In particular, the position: fixed CSS property will let you put something at a position on the window, no matter how it scrolls.
Here is a simple JSFiddle that demonstrates the technique: http://jsfiddle.net/BinaryMuse/ndr2Q/
You can click the titles of the books to expand their description, which will hopefully make the preview window tall enough to scroll. (If not, just resize the window.) No matter where in the document you scroll, the "popup" window (which is just a regular element with an ng-show and some CSS) stays at the bottom-right of the screen.
You can find libraries, like Bootstrap, that present jQuery plugins to allow you to do popups on the page, but in general they're designed to prevent the user from interacting with the page behind the modal in any useful way. A technique like this allows you to scroll around and use the page in the background similar to Gmail's interface.
Dockmodal is a Gmail like dockable modal plugin that has the option to minimize and restore opened modal dialogs.
Check out these angular JS alerts based on bootstrap:
http://mgcrea.github.io/angular-strap/#/alerts
You can use the provided $modal service that takes a template URL as well :
var modal = $modal({template: '/js/app/views/elements/modal-welcome.html', show: true, backdrop: 'static'});
And shows it up as a popup.
I have creating a page where i need to show a div in a popup. I have searched around and only found window.open, that i personally hate, as its a really ugly solution, and causes crosss browser broblems. I have seen floating popups on the web, with a black cross in the right upper hand corner. I think you must create a div, and the JS script will pick up .the div and show it in the floating window. I have searched around alot but could not find a solution. I using Tapestry 5.3.6 . Can anyone show me how to do this..?
From your description it sounds as though you might be looking for FancyBox:
http://fancybox.net/
There are a lot of tutorials on how to use these JavaScript based overlay type pop-up windows. The FancyBox homepage shows quite a few examples.
There are lots of javascript solutions for this.
Start by looking at
Jquery UI
What you want is called a modal window or dialog
Thickbox
Colorbox
Jquery Light Box
Try this jquery lightbox plugin i think this is what you want...Hope it helps...
So i tried searching for what I looked for but I couldn't really find exactly what I was looking for, if it even is possible that is.
What I'm looking for is a way to make the links people click on my website appear almost as ads, not a seperate window or tab in the browser but its own small window on the current tab itself. I made a image as a sort of example of what I mean. I don't know if it'll do any good but its worth a shot, I'd love to have it be able to work with Coolmenu as well. And if people wanted to open them in a new window or new tab, they could just right click, like below:
Update: 10:32 7.11
I realized that both of these links, as well as when i searched for some on my own all date form like 2006-2009, whereas all of them use
<div id="overlay">
<div>
<p>Content you want the user to see goes here.</p>
</div>
</div>
I think I can just write () (correct me if im wrong) as well as the paragraph stuff, but what should I do about all the ? should I just straight out remove it or replace it?
Update 10:50 7.11
I don't got more time to work on it today but next time I got some time, should I post all the other javascript and css I have on my page (only coolmenu that is) to give you some sort of idea of what exactly I want to accomplish?
And again, thank you all for the great help.
Update 12.11 08:05: I'm having trouble getting it to work together with Coolmenu.
I can provide with my css and javascript code for both coolmenu and the window thing if required, should i upload a .txt or just put it here?
Modal Windows
I guess you wanna make Modal Windows. You can easily do that using this tutorial here: Simple jQuery Modal Window Tutorial.
Screenshot:
Demo here: Demo
jQuery Dialog
Or you can even use jQuery Dialogs, which uses same principle, but easy to implement.
Although you don't want to open a new window, this is the quickest way you will get it to work how you want and involves the least amount of javascript.
Code:
Hi
Parameter 1 is the URL, parameter 2 is the name of the window.
In the 3rd parameter you can pass the following options:
status: The status bar at the bottom of the window.
toolbar: The standard browser toolbar, with buttons such as Back and Forward.
location: The Location entry field where you enter the URL.
menubar: The menu bar of the window
directories: The standard browser directory buttons, such as What’s New and What’s Cool
resizable: Allow/Disallow the user to resize the window.
scrollbars: Enable the scrollbars if the document is bigger than the window
height: Specifies the height of the window in pixels. (example:
height=’350′)
width: Specifies the width of the window in pixels.

I want to have a javascript/jQuery popup window (child page) that is always in front of the parent page, something like facebook's current picture viewing feature.
it would be closed by the user clicking on the close button.
I have tried as below:
mywindow = window.open ("DownloadForm.aspx", "mywindow","location=1,status=1,scrollbars=1, width=350,height=150");
mywindow.moveTo(350, 350);
this code successfully opened a child page in front of the parent page, but there is jQuery code ( $(#test).click() ) on the parent page which causes the parent page to always be in front.
I tried putting the window.open() code after $(#test).click(), but it didn't solve the problem.
The $(#test).click() is necessary, therefore I need to have a workaround.
I appreciate any help, thank you in advance.
myWindow.focus()
Many modern browsers prevent this from working, but it's the only way.
use following javascript code in the page you are opening in popup
<body onblur="self.focus();">
Im sure you cannot control the order of the window. Instead of a popup (which is often and usually blocked by browsers) why not investigate using a lightbox javascript plugin. They are usually free, stylish and work well.
Just set it from the modal css. The z-index is normally set to 1. Just change it to 9999. That is the purpose of the z-index, to set the popup top level.
If not using bootstrap popup, then you need to use css to set it. Browsers are not guaranteed to place nice with .focus() on a window.
