sayedsohail Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Hi everyone, I am just wondering if anyone had come across something like alternate to using window.open. Please guide me if this is possible to use <div> element as an alternate to popup. At the moment i am using window.open which works perfectly fine. But just wondering if i can open a php file inside a div element i.e, i got a simple registration form with usual login name and password and submit button, which i wish to open inside a div element in the current window instead of using a popup window. I knew it is possible if i type the registration form within the current window and div element, than i can trigger style visibility= visible, which shows the registration form using z-index, but i want to separate out/branch out the form code in a external file and refer it inside the div. Please advise. Thanks Sayeed Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/59706-alternate-popup-using-div-is-it-possible/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkBait Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 So you just want to open PHP script within a <div> tag? <?php echo "<div>"; require("myfile.php"); echo "</div>"; ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/59706-alternate-popup-using-div-is-it-possible/#findComment-296742 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayedsohail Posted July 12, 2007 Author Share Posted July 12, 2007 thanks, as i mentioned earlier in the last paragraph "I knew it is possible if i type the registration form within the current window and div element, than i can trigger style visibility= visible, which shows the registration form using z-index, but i want to separate out/branch out the form code in a external file and refer it inside the div." Hope you got my point. What i am trying to achieve is to display the form/open the form.php file inside a div element without using iframes or typing directly echo "div"; ...

Philip Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Something like this: http://www.bookmarkmania.com/ajax/show_hide_div.html ? If yes, just look at the source code, let me know if you need an explanation.
