I'm wanting to have just a few select links open in an iframe, while all other site links function as normal. Is this possible and if so how?

Thanks!

If you create the links via the {modal} tag, only those will open in modal popups.

Hi Peter,

Thanks. I did finally figure this out, however I've run into a number of other challenges that, after searching this forum, don't seem to be uncommon.

Fancybox won't allow me to fill in the form in my iframe because it moves me out of the current iframe and into the next one depending upon where the cursor is.

Squeebox modal tags just don't work.

HighSlide Outlines - I can't seem to find the modal tags for this one.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

If you can only get Highslide and fancybox to work, you have some mootools conflict with another extension or your template.

Peter,

I really appreciate your responsiveness!Thank you very much. I do have to confess that I am not really a coder and so the link you shared, the page of which I've previously spent a lot of time looking over, and your message about a syntax problem... not really sure what that means!

I've not been able to use the modal tags for HighSlide because, unlike the other apps on the Modal Syntax page that have a cut and paste example, ie.{modal url=testpage.html|type=fancybox|overlay=0}FancyBox without an overlay{/modal}, in which I put in my URL, HighSlide doesn't have a cut and paste example so I don't know how to input it into my site.

Can you provide me with this or point me in the direction to find it?

Thanks again for all your help.

Well, the type attribute and others can be used to overrule the default settings. So if you plan to use highslide and certain settings, it is best to just set that up in the Modalizer plugin parameters.
Then you don't need to put any parameters in the tag (except the url of course).

Is it possible to utilize the Modalzer plugin settings to affect only a few specific links of my choosing rather than affecting all the links globally throughout the site? If so, how?

Thanks again. Peter.

Is this the same question as you started off with? What do you mean?

It is the same question. My goal is simply to get a few specific links on my site to open up in an iframe, or shadow box, etc.

The pages that open are for my users to either register for an account, login to their account, register for an event, etc.

My site is www.lifewalk.tv

Currently, if you click on the "Create a LifeWalk account" link, or the "Login to your account" link, the page opens up full screen in a new browser window.

Well, same question = same answer.

If you only want defined links to open up as modal, you will have to use the {modal} syntax to create the links.

Or somehow add a classname to the links and set Modalizer up to modalizer links with that classname.

Peter,

Thanks again. I did get it all figured out. HighSlide worked great... except it disabled another feature on my site. I disabled Mootools in Modalizer, then HighSlide didn't work. Too bad, because I really liked it.

Unfortunately, unless you have a brilliant idea, I don't think Modalize will work for me. Dang!
