dxPopup is an alternative to the popup and window.open functions of javascript--with a few added bonuses.
The current version of dxPopup is 0.2.1.
There are many other alternatives already out there such as Cross-Browser.com's xpopup--I am aware of this. Even so, dxPopup provides a decent method of using popups in a web page.
To use dxPopup, simply download dxPopup,
include dxPopup.js in the header of the page, and call the function dxPopup(). dxPopup
can also be called at the loading of a page by inserting the dxPopup() function in a
window.onLoad event or in the onLoad event in the body tag.
If you are using dxPopup, you probably know a little about javascript already, which means you are smart. Since you are smart, you can think of ways how to use it. I do not have time to write up documentation. There is however a small readme file in the download.
dxPopup is written by Joseph Piché and is licenced under the MIT license as contained in the source code.
