Highslide JS is an open source JavaScript software, offering a Web 2.0 approach to popup windows. It streamlines the use of thumbnail images and HTML popups on web pages. The library has many features such as no plugins like Flash or Java required, popup blockers are no problem. The content expands within the active browser window. Single click. After opening the image or HTML popup, the user can scroll further down or leave the page without closing it. Compatibility and safe fallback. If the user has disabled JavaScript or the JavaScript fails in any way, the browser redirects directly to the image itself or to a fallback HTML page. This fallback is able to cope with most exceptions and incompatibilities.
Is the title right? Highslide isn’t modal, as you show in your video it’s possible to open several objects at the same time - is “popup Everything” a more relevant title?
Hi Henrik, Good point, I must have been up too late last night. Thanks for the correction. I’ve changed the title.
