How does one open a popup window INSIDE an iframe?

Simply put, how can I open a popup window INSIDE an iframe? Whether I use window.open in the parent window or the iframe, the popup window loads on top of the parent. Is it possible to open up a new window such that it's confined to the iframe?

Thank you very much for any help.

Solution

  • It is not possible to open a new window so that it is confined to the iframe. Functionality similar to what you're asking for could be achieved using a JavaScript lightbox.
