How to trigger a popup using HTML Attributes

Would you like to open, close or toggle a popup by clicking on a link or button? You can do so by utilizing HTML attributes.

Where to find the Popup ID?

To find the popup ID, first, go to FireBox > Popups and look at the last column named "ID".

Available Commands

• open (Show the popup)
• close (Close the popup)
• toggle (Toggle the popup)

Syntax

The syntax can be found below using as an example a Popup with ID #1.

Show Popup using a button

<button data-fbox="1" data-fbox-cmd="open">
    Open Popup
</button>

Close Popup using a div

<div data-fbox="1" data-fbox-cmd="close">
    Close me!
</div>

Close Popup and Follow Link URL

<a data-fbox="1" data-fbox-cmd="close" data-fbox-prevent="0" href="http://www.google.gr">
    Close and Return to Google.gr
</a>

Toggle Open/Close State

<a href="#" data-fbox="1">
    Toggle Open/Close State
</a>

Note

The data-fbox attribute is not required when placing an HTML Element in a popup. FireBox will automatically understand that you want to trigger the actual popup and will close itself automatically.

<button data-fbox-cmd="close">
    Hide me!
</button>
