I'm trying to do something that would be alternative to a pop-up window. I want a link that, when clicked, when load an object (ie flash video) or iframe source/html page ON TOP of the existing page within a NEW layer. Example would be if I had a navigation menu that would load a new layer containing text links in a sort of sub menu of listed flash videos. When one of the links is activated, a layer atop the page is loaded (100% width/height) of the flash video (from a source such as dailymotion or youtube) that a visitor could watch and then close with the existing page still there behind it. I am trying to do this in a LAYER instead of opening a new browser window. I have seen this done on one site before (but forgot where) and loved the effect. ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

I am trying to set something up on my page so that when a link is clicked, an object (swf) or external html source will load on the existing page in a NEW layer. I want something that will load on top of the existing page and can then be closed showing the page that remained behind the temporary new layer. PLEASE HELP!
