graphic illustration of my effect
i'm using a provided plugin like fancybox for overlaying content over the homepage.
i've run into a limitation.
at the moment, i'm loading new pages in an iframe, which i thought would be the easiest. however, this gives the new iframe window a scroll bar, which i don't want. the problem with using given plugins like fancy box and others, is that it opens up content inside 1 window.
what i want, is to open up several page elements (divs) over the homepage where the homepage is visible beneath and between the elements of the "new" page.
imagine opening up a new page where the background of the next page is transparent showing the homepage / parent page underneath. moreover, the content of the new page will require scrolling and should use the default scrollbar just like a new page would have. this also adds the benefit of having the background homepage stay static with the new page content scrolling over which is a nice effect.
i tried finding a way to make the background invisible, but i don't think that is possible.
thanks!
