i am using facebox http://chriswanstrath.com/facebox/

please click on this link
http://www.sudhakargolakaram.co.in/f...les/popup.html

when this link is clicked a popup window appears with content inside this popup window.

i would like this pop up window to appear by default when the page has loaded

if i am using another jquery plugin which also has a similar popup effect what is the general rule so that these popup windows appear by default when the page loads

i have tried using
$(document).ready(function() {
}

but not sure how to call this popup window for different jquery plugins that have different effects for the popup window inside $(document).ready
so that the window appears when the page loads

It probably binds an onclick event to the object, so inducing a click may work.

    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
      $('a[rel*=facebox]').facebox({
        loadingImage : '../src/loading.gif',
        closeImage   : '../src/closelabel.png'
      }).click();
    })

Like mgraphic said, you need to trigger a click event.
this may also help you

jQuery(document).ready(function() {
$('a[rel*=facebox]').facebox({
loadingImage : '../src/loading.gif',
closeImage : '../src/closelabel.png'
});
$('a[rel*=facebox]').trigger('click');
});

i have used fancybox for popup effects.
please see this link
http://www.sudhakargolakaram.co.in/f...ncy/popup.html

here when the link is clicked a popup window appears with the effect created by fancybox

what i need is i want this popup window to appear by default when the page loads

how do i specify that i want this content in a popup window with the effect when the page loads

try $("#various1").fancybox({...}).click(); on the load of the page (haven't tested it)

I just realized you posted the same question about another control. Just out of curiosity, why not use the one from jQuery UI?
