Displaying light box

Permalink
Hi Guys,

I am working on a site in which a block will list the jobs title and description. When we click on the job title a pop up box will open, which shows the entire details of the job and contains a apply button for applying job.
So what i did in block/myblock/view.php is 
<?php while($jobs = mysql_fetch_assoc($row)) { ?>
      <tr>
         <td> <?php echo $jobs['Id'];?>   </td> 
        <?php $ids=$jobs['fID'];?>
         <td class="jobs"> <span class="job_head">
       <a dialog-title="This is the dialog title."
         dialog-modal="false"
         dialog-width="550"
         dialog-height="480"
         id="myDialog"
         href="apply_jobs.php"> <?php echo $jobs['name'] ?> </a></span> <p class="desc"> <?php echo $jobs['factsDescription']?> </p></td>
       </tr>
<?php } ?>


the above code displays all the jobs from database.
Now when i click the first job, an pop up opens and not if i click second, third , etc
And also i need to pass the jobs id from blocks/myblock/view.php to apply_jobs.php
Is this possible?
I have attached a screen shot, it will explain about the job listing.

Any help would be appreciable.

Many thanks
Karthik

Maybe each dialog needs a unique ID? Shouldn't it maybe be something like

id="myDialog-<?=jobs['ID'];?>"

Not sure if that will help you or not, but that's my first thought...

you could try passing the job id as a query?

Then use htaccess to do the replacements?


[code]
//.htaccss
RewriteRule ^apply_jobs/([0-9]+)/?$ apply_jobs.php [L]

<?php
href="apply_jobs/<?=$jobs['id']?>"

//or
href="apply_jobs.php?job=<?=$jobs['id']?>"
?>
