Quickpost: nyroModal – another jQuery plug-in to keep an eye on
Over the last week or three Internal Apps had a problem where they wanted to display a page, but have a window appear with new contract terms visible. They also needed a scroll bar, buttons to accept/decline, print, and close the pop-up. They also needed a little twist, if the user declined the new contract, or closed the pop-window, the page should send them back to the log in page.
I thought about the problems, and I was thinking recommending to them FancyBox (our old standby for modal windows), but I had just read on another site about nyroModal. I recommended that they try it out (since it's jQuery you have all those great callback functions - that would cover the page redirection etc. - and those oh-so-tasty visual effects that would provide them with exactly what they had envisioned), and within a day they had a perfect set up. So if you find that you need a modal box (for whatever reason), I suggest you give nyroModal a try. We ourselves won't be dumping FancyBox anytime soon, but it is nice to have another option.
