Thick Box is a nice little Javascript tool that can display content on the web is a less linear click-for-new-page format.
The html is pulled from the server using AXAH (because they couldn’t continue to call it AJAX).
Used here – http://cortneykelleyphotography.com/gallery.html, quite simply to create a photo gallery, Thick Box can be used with Prototype & Scriptaculous, but you’ll want to modify your Javascript a bit.
Download it and get examples of code here – http://codylindley.com/Javascript/257/thickbox-one-box-to-rule-them-all
Beware of what the stylesheet will do to your layouts.
