You have to include the JS & CSS file to call the modal. Please download the source and check how to implement, https://code.google.com/p/simplemodal/downloads/list

You can't create a modal dialog with window.open.
Modal dialogs are pseudo dialogs created with a an overlay div that covers the page on top of which is another div that contains the dialog - i.e. all elements in the same browser window with the impression of a dialog.
Your solution is opening another browser window - which will never be modal.
To open a modal - look at www.jqueryui.com specifically (http://jqueryui.com/dialog/)
The JQueryUI library works on top of Jquey and you can use it to create a themed popup modal dialog. There are samples on the link above.

I can see that I need a modal. I am trying to use Simplemodal. I have the js and the css loaded. But it won't open. I tried the demo and it works but when I move it to my page it doesn't work. Can it be a directory pointing to the wrong place? Its "Share Bri"

Solved it was the ID of a Div.
DS928, did you solve this yourself by catching your own coding error? Or did the expert actually help you find this error?
ASKER
A little bit of both. I changed the name of the Div in the CSS to match the name of my Div.

I am looking over it now.
