Is there a module to displayinode content in AJAX styled window-like overlay?
Hello Folks,
i like to realize a product overview page showing several different products. If you click on one of those products i would like an ajax window (div overlay) to open smoothly, to display some detail informations, facts, images etc.
I've created a content type named "products", with all the neccesary fields. The product overview is realized as a view then, showing the created products. But i have no clue how to realize an ajax window overlay showing the node data from the selected node. I've thought that it should be possible to realize a simple href with onclick maybe to then open an ajax window with the node information in it, without loading a new page. Unfortunately i dont know how to realize that...
Is there a module, a tutorial or a nice doc that would solve my problem?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Martin
Gonna bump this one too
Gonna bump this one too because this is pretty much what I need as well. Shoadowbox works beautifully, but I have no clue how to get just a certain item to open up or slide up using Ajax. I can link to another page and have it open in Shadowbox, but then I'm displaying the entire page... when I just need a small amount of info displayed, not another full page. Hopefully someone has an idea how to accomplish this without having to write another separate css, views, div, etc.

Thanks for the reply. I'm
Thanks for the reply. I'm actually already using the popups mod... but it's only being used in the admin section. Guess I don't know how to employ it in nodes. I'll have to look into this a bit more to see if it will accomplish what I need.
Thanks again!
