Menu
On the click of a button, I'm trying to show a simple hidden div in a fancy box. This is the code that works:
$("#btnForm").fancybox({ content: $("#divForm").html() });
But from what I've read, this doesn't seem to be the standard way to accomplish this. I've tried each of the following, unsuccessfully:
$("#btnForm").fancybox({ href: "#divForm" });
$("#btnForm").click(function () {
$.fancybox({ href: "#divForm" });
});
$("#btnForm").click(function () {
$("#divForm").fancybox();
});
Can someone point me in the right direction on how to properly use this utility? Here's my html:
<input type="button" value="Load Form" id="btnForm" />
<div id="divForm" style="display:none">
<form action="tbd">
File: <input type="file" /><br /><br />
<input type="submit" />
</form>
</div>

on('click', function() { $. fancybox(); }); });
fancybox is designed to display images, video, iframes and any HTML content. For your convenience, there is a built in support for inline content and ajax. Images.
Fancybox saves you time and helps to easily create beautiful, modern overlay windows containing images, iframes, videos or any kind of HTML content. This is the 4th generation of Fancybox and brings lots of fresh features.
As far as I know, an input element may not have a href attribute, which is where Fancybox gets its information about the content. The following code uses an a element instead of the input element. Also, this is what I would call the "standard way".

padde's solution is right, but risen up another problem i.e.
As said by Adam (the questioner) that it is showing empty popup. Here is the complete and working solution
