Designers seem to like using modal windows more and more, as they provide a quick way to show data without reloading the entire page. It's easy to use and easy to design.
The big problem I experienced with every plugin I tried either using Prototype/Scriptaculous or jQuery is the customization. They say you can do whatever you want simply but that's not fully true. The default CSS works fine, but most of time it's a mix between required elements and optional. That mean you have to be very careful when editing it.
The other problem is the animation. That's the worst point. I never found one plugin allowing to redefine easily the animations.
I tried to solve these problems with my plugin. I documented everything possible. Regarding the animations, you can simply redefine them from A to Z. Thanks to the useful jQuery function like animate or fadeTo it's pretty simple.
nyroModal v2 now works with filters that let you define totally new possibilities for the plugin about the way it should work.
like in the version 1, you still have a bunch of callbacks that you can define in many different places.
Enough talk, let's try it and learn it!
