Pop-up window while creating a webpage

Question

I'm using Visual Studio 2010, and i'm creating a website using C#. I'm opening a pop-up when user clicks a button.

Now i want to perform the task mentioned below:

• When a pop-up opens i do not want user to click anywhere else. I mean he should be able to click or do any activity in the pop-up window ONLY, whereas he shouldn't be able to do anything in the parent window until and unless he closes the pop-up.

How to achieve this?

Answer 1

Depends on how you are creating the website. C# is the server-side language and can be used in ASP.Net websites as well as MVC.

If ASP.Net, Ajax Control Toolkit has a modal popup:

If MVC, jQuery has a modal popup:
