Modalizer will help you create modal popup window links. Modalizer can also convert any existing link in your website to modal popup window link.
Modal popup windows are fancy popup boxes also known as Lightboxes.
You can use the Joomla core SqueezeBox or ColorBox modal script.
There are several ways Modalizer can covert links:
* Via the special Modal tags {modal ...}...{/modal}
* By class names (all links with defined class names)
* By target="_blank" (all links with a target. Internal and/or external)

Works perfectly out of the box. Nice work
Nice script! Easy to use and customise, easier still to implement.
BUT I could say it would be nicer still if there was a wysiwyg button for creating said links, for those that don't quite understand classes, targets.... I've met a lot.
Then again, I'll probably just set it up so whenever it sees a menu name or generic alias in the url it clicks into action, nice id 10 t proof method. (hence the 5 star rating!)

I tried 3 other modal box extensions that didn't work on a complex Joomla setup.
Went back to the drawing board, found this one and would trust it would work great out of the box, as do their other extensions.
Thrilled to find out I was right! Thank you!

I have upgraded this plugin, but still couldn't make internal links to work on modal window.
Looked for this issue on NoNumbers Forum, discussed the problem with Peter, who took it on his hands and fixed it on my website.
Great Plugin - Awesome Support :D

You dont get to many Modules that work OUT of the Box on any Custom Website or in particular a Very customized Yoo Theme Configuration. Conflicts always arise with issues.
I was expecting this Mod to break something or cause the gallery Pop ups to fail - or - or - or Something!
This mod installed - Setup in Minutes - Tested without a single Issue! I love the Pop Links for Websites in my Sobi - Directory and for Terms and Conditions. Well done by the Developer!

I tried hundreds of extensions that didnt work as expected, and this one is surely THE extension. It's simple and functional and extremely easy to make a menu item open in a popup window.
The plug-in works like a charm. I tried in IE, Firefox, Chrome, and it works well in all 3.
It's a very good plugin, very useful and simple to use once you understand it.
The bad point is that to understand it there is a tiny documentation very limited. It was not enough for me to be able to use this plugin for my needs.
However the support is free and it is the best I have ever seen. Peter is there to help you quickly and efficiently

In the Modalizer plugin all settings have tooltips explaining what they are for.
Also my site explains a lot about how to use it.
Any remaining questions I am happy to answer via my forum.
This is an excellent modul which offers all it promises and more, in a plug-in that installed straight-forward.
ps: I was a bit skeptical because the module has been submitted way back in 2008. But the package still worked like a charm.
Thanks Peter (my donation on it's way...)

Yeah, Modalizer is old and battered. When I have the time I will make a completly new version.
The modal scripts used in Modalizer are old too of course (and most not written for newer browsers). So just use what still works.
I was testing this in all major browsers and apart from Chrome that opened the popups blank, no content it worked in all others to the point of perfection.
Tho, I'm afraid of using this on my site due to not getting it to work with Chrome, small as the chance is that the old ladies that are my customers aren't very likely to use Chrome.

There are a huge number of really good extensions written for Joomla. The difference between the really good and the excellent is what Peter has discovered and delivers, support. Not only do his components do what he says they will, more often then not with without any problems, when you do have problems his support is... simply the best I've ever experienced from any person or company I've ever dealt with. Long may he continue to give his time and expertise to the rest of the Joomla community.
Guys,
I was looking for a way to insert layers to Joomla and hit upon Modalizer.
This is one of the best plugin I have come across and there is only one thing better than this, the support provided by Peter. He helped me out instantly and I was making this stupid mistake of not closing the entry using {/modal}.
Hat's off to Peter for such a wonderful plugin!!!
If you are looking for a beautiful layer implementation for your Joomla site. This is yoru final destination.
