Popups

Another great interactive addition to your course is a popup. This allows you to have a button that retrieves a message. This is great for course information, or for instant feedback on something like a quick practice quiz or study tool. There are a lot of possibilities! 

All you need to do is add the following code and keep your label and dialog within the correct <div> tags. 

Like other buttons, you can also change the color depending on the style of button you choose. Check out the Canvas Style Guide Links to an external site. to see how to change the color of buttons. 

div id="dialog_for_link1" class="enhanceable_content dialog">dialog for link 1</div>
<a href="#dialog_for_link1" id="link1" class="Button"> link 1</a>
