Halo guys

In my portal  I am creating a new link button in "Links" module. On click of that link button, I need to display content retreived from database in a new pop up window.

Can anyone suggest me how to get the pop up window with the values retreived from the database?

Kindly help me in this regard

All replies are appreciated..

What I've done is used Highslide with an IFRAME and an ASPX page.  It doesn't get blocked by pop-up blockers and works well.

In addition, you could use the ModelPopup from the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit.

That covers the display of the popup.  To access the data you could use something like I do in my modules to get the data to lookup from the link's querystring:

' Get data

    Dim mySqlDataAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter("SELECT Field1, Field2 FROM TableName WHERE ParamName = @ParamName ORDER BY Name", ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("DataConnectionString").ToString())
    mySqlDataAdapter.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@ParamName", SqlDbType.Int).Value = Request.QueryString("campground")
    Dim myDataTable As New DataTable
    mySqlDataAdapter.Fill(myDataTable)

    If myDataTable.Rows.Count > 0 Then

   ....
