How to do a popup box

bit-naughty

6/25/2015 7:19:00 PM

Hi,
I have a <div> which will have some text in it, when someone clicks on that box, I want a "menu" with some options in it to popup on TOP of that box, how do I do this please? I do NOT want to use CSS, ie. a:link ,. The items in the menu will have to be fetched via AJAX.

Thanks.

Wrong NG.
This is not a paid helpdesk.
We won't code for you for free.

The question can be interpreted to be a question about
JavaScript (that is, to be on topic).

Nowhere does the charta exclude answers that can be used for
work (for profit). If you do not want to answer to a
question, you are free to do so.

Nowhere does the charta exclude the possibility to ask for a
payment. If you want to be paid by the OP, you are free to
ask him to do so.

And of course, we often do code for you for free. But you need to find
a way to pique our interest. Such a question probably won't do it.

Human interpretation has no limits,
unlike script interpreter engines.

"charter"!

This posting is typically a question of free help,
and methinks that is off topic.

"charter"!

This NG has a strong and long history of discouraging such questions,
and quite rightly so.

The OP would need to show at least some primordial effort,
giving the vague promise of his own implementation.

Quite, it does not pop me up!

Bad idea.

Good advice.

>> I do NOT want to use CSS, ie. a:link
>> .. will have to be fetched ..

"I do NOT want"? Why?

Perhaps his schoolteacher said so?

Oh for God's sake - there's SEVEN replies, all filled with *this* bullshit - if you don't want to help me, DON'T, don't go on and on about it...?!!! This is NOT homework, but yes, it IS for a site I'm making, and I can only tell you what I *thought* of - I don't *know* what to code, if I knew, I wouldn't BE here....?

The z-index for this "menu" has to be more than that of the page, right......? But I can't figure out how to code the "onclick" stuff..... The menu has to be displayed where the mouse was clicked, how do I do that?

Thanks for your help. No thanks for no help.

Well, asking someone else to do the coding for you, as you write in another
post "but yes, it IS for a site I'm making", that is not a sound way to
learn.

Learning is an interaction of showing what you know already,
and asking for help from someone you expect to be more proficient than you,
where and when you get stuck.

Learning is not:
specifying what result you "need" and so
limiting your teacher to what he dare not touch, as in
"I do NOT want to use CSS, ie. a:link ,."
and
"The items in the menu will have to be fetched via AJAX."

Learning is:
Hoping your teacher will come up with arguments to do something in a way you
never dreamed of before.

"Oh for God's sake":
You better leave out incantations to the invisible imagined little man in
the sky. I trust his knowledge of Javascript is actually infinitesimal.

"The menu has to be displayed where the mouse was clicked":
why "has to be", unless your schoolteacher has ordered you so?
