Now, it’s easier than ever. Just use jquery and the jquery.blockUI.js plugin. You may download the jquery.blockUI.js plugin here. Now, in a we page, add the following scripts in the head section:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.blockUI.js"> </script>
You have now added the jquery library and the jquery.blockUI.js plugin in your web page. Lets create a button that when is pressed, a popup message is diplayed. Add the following input button in the body section:
<input type="button" value="press" id="press" />
and the following script in the head section:
<script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $('#press').click(function() { $.growlUI(null, 'Sample message'); }); }); </script>
The $.growlUI is the function need for diplaying the popup message. Now, open your web page, press the button and enjoy the result.
