Hi,

In my application I have a grid which is showing the attached files with a link button. By clicking the filename link button I want to show the file to the user, these all working fine. My query is how to display the file in a popup window. When the user clicks on the FileName link button the Pop up should open to show the file content. How to do this.

Thanks in Advance

~~You could put target="_blank" in your opening link and it will open in new window without pop-up.~~

Use this code[^] to append text from the file to your popup div.

Call jQuery.dialog()[^] on that div and you're done.

Almost copy / paste job :)

Our client is asking to display it in a popup not in a new window.
