jQuery popup needed

I need to display a popup window when a user clicks a hyperlink on a page. The popup needs to display an ASP.NET gridview control, so I m开发者_运维知识库ay need a little AJAX so I can query the server for datasource depending on which hyperlink the user clicks.

Does something in the jQuery API pretty much fit my needs? Or, a good plugin?

In jQuery UI you have the window plugin. Check the examples here

Yes, jQuery would be perfect .

Jquery UI may fit the bill but also check out http://flowplayer.org/tools/overlay/index.html if you need some fancier effects.
