Scriptaculous Popups
Looking for some JS popups based upon Scriptaculous and Prototype, I looked at script.aculo.us first. Sadly, a lot of their information is in their wiki, which happened to be unavailable for some reason!
I turned to Google and I found:
DOM Popup Kit which makes its own links and requires popup contents to be defined ahead of time.
ModalBox looks better and it appears to do well called from a JS event attribute and can load dynamic content. It also handles static content well, either directly or by reference.
MOOdalBox is supposedly an altered version of ModalBox that looks pretty nice, too.
Intro to Scriptaculous Effects is not a real popup widget, but is a nice introduction to using the JS library.
There are probably others, but I think these are a good start.
