I am using Ruby on Rails 3.0.9 and I would like to show a block (that is, something like a popup message - I think it should be a HTML div tag...) in the middle of a page without open a new page.
For example, clicking a link in a page it should appear overriding the current browser page and should have a fixed width. In few words, I would like to implement something as a Facebook "generic dialog popup".
How can I implement that? How I must state HTML and CSS?
There are many, many solutions to modal dialogs in JS.

While I'm trying to switch between different sections of my webpage I am getting the following page as shown in the image. How can I solve this?
you need to provide context for your question for people being able to help you. I imagine you are trying to navigate between different html files, by clicking into an anchor tag, is that correct?
Go to next page
So in that case, you might be adding a wrong relative route, otherwise I think you should add more context to your question.
If you are trying to switch between sections on your webpage. Try adding section and giving them id. Then from any anchor tag you can reach the section by adding the following code.
Section 1
you can use jquery
$(".div").load("index.php .yoursection");
To switch between sections on your webpage,Use the id selector ,
Example:
<p id="opening">Hyperlinks are utilized by a web browser to move from one page to another...</p>
Now add the anchor tag to link,
Opening
"Opening" will be displayed as a link on the webpage. On clicking it, you will be switched on the same webpage where the id is "Opening".
In this example it is the paragraph tag.
If you trying to switch into another webpage,
Go to home page
I have made an web page. There are two iframes
In it. First is of index and second one is description page. I want that when I click on the any index hyperlink, then it is displayed on main description page.
How it will be possible? please give me the HTML code
You can use a button and when clicking it, change the url of the iFrame using Javascript like this:
document.getElementById('iframe-id').src = newLink;
You can use the data-attribute to store the wanted link in your html.
In case you want to do that: It is not possible to react to things outside of an iFrame through an iFrame. So you cannot put a link in iFrame1 and have it reload iFrame2, because those are two different websites and don't see each other.
Now, idk what exactly you are planing to do, but I really hope, that you don't want to make your entire site like that. Using iFrames is really only useful for things like inserting widgets (like Codepen etc.), but should never be used to display information from your own site. If you don't want to copy your html for every site then use PHP. If you don't want to reload your entire webpage (which is pretty much never a problem) you can use AJAX-requests to load parts of your website. (Frameworks like React.js, Angular.js and Vue.js do that for you)
I am preparing a website using bootstrap which uses a lots of modals with images. I am concerned about the performance.
I want to know that when exactly the browser loads the modal.
With the page loads?
After the page loads?
On click/trigger event?
As per code flow?
Or something else?
Anyone please explain.
Yes, the modal is loaded when the page loads. However, bootstrap sets its css display property to none (Line 5876 in the bootstrap.css file). display: none means that the element won't be rendered until its display value changes.
What this means:
You should be fine, unless you plan on showing loads of modals at once. And by loads I mean thousands of them.
This is weird!
I have set up a form using RapidMailer, and on an external site it works fine. (Just to complicate matters, the form is within a <div> as I display a background image, and then use the <div> to position the signup box halfway down the page)
But ...
Put it within an Facebook (Thunderpenny) StaticHTML page, (which I think is <iframe>?) and whilst I can enter name/email, and the submit button shows mouse up/mouse down events, it just won't submit.
I tried adding "pointer-event:auto" to the div so that it was to the fore, but no go. And no good asking the app creator as I doubt I'll get a response. Anyone any ideas? (** I could include page code, but it's 90% links to external js files Rapidmailer sets up)
Is it 'cos I got a <div> within an <iframe>? Do I need to add an <object> to the code somewhere???
It turns out that for some reason, the HTML code cannot find / use the javascripts even with direct URL's. I strongly suspect it's to do with "cross browser" limitations. In otherwords, the StaticHTML <iframe> is on one server, and the HTML code is trying to access javascript on a second server. And as the RapidMailer script is using three scripts direct from jquery.com, it's difficult to know what can be eliminated as they all contain error trapping routines.
In the end, I had to add a direct link to a status update on the Facebook page, and redirect it to the signup form on my blog. I then pinned the post the top. Alas, now for some reason it won't display a graphic with the link, and instead insists on showing the URL itself! Oh well!
I've created a toolbar in html that I need to be able to load of any given webpage; I'm thinking of loading it on the page through the use of a bookmarklet but I can't quite get my head around how I go about doing it.
An example of what a need to happen is as follows.
I navigate to any webpage on the internet, I click the bookmark for my toolbar and it appears at the bottom of the page without affecting any of the content on the page, it will stay fixed even when scrolling.
I've added a picture of how the toolbar will look, any suggestions on how I can implement the required functionality?

Many Thanks
What you will need to do is use CSS to keep it at the bottom. Basically you stick your toolbar html code in a <div> tag and then use CSS to keep it at the bottom. Try reading this link or this link on how to do it
Create a script file that you can host somewhere (if it's just for you, you can use localhost). In that script build the toolbar. Your bookmarklet will look something like this:
javascript: document.body.appendChild(document.createElement("script"))
.src = "http://myserver/myscript.js"; void 0;
It wraps here for readability. It won't wrap in your bookmarklet.
The javascript: tells the browser you are executing a script. The void 0 at the end prevents the page from navigating to the return value of the JavaScript.
