And thank you Volvox - I've been searching for an answer to the overlay hiding problem for ages and you've sorted it - I was putting an alert() in there to try and slow the process but your idea is brilliant!

When you download content to overlay panel using AJAX, function which adds click event for 'close' button ('$('A.hide-overlay', $overlay_wrapper).click) is called before AJAX return results. Because of that object 'A.hide-overlay' will not be found, and function for closing overlay will not be attached. To make it work one can add: $.ajaxSetup({async: false}) This will cause jQuery to wait with code execution till AJAX call is finished. (this is only of many ideas to make it work) This works nicely, but there is one problem.

But i want to ask a question: Is it possible to send a value from example.html to "$overlay_panel.html"?(like a hidden value) Nice post, thanks.
