I'm a little behind the times and haven't been keeping up with new coding technology. A lot of sites are starting to use fields that pop up without creating a new window. Or on forums you click an image to download and view it but when it opens it opens on the same page over the old content and everything else is faded. You click anywhere and your back to where you were before.
What coding language is this? I'm assuming its a form of Javascript? Facebook uses the same technology when you click "add as a friend"
I'm looking to add a little more bling to my applications and I want to make sure I'm on the right track before learning a new language.

Re: In Page Pop Up Areas
This is all Javascript & AJAX. Generally the inline window + fading effect is called "Lightbox".
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.
