Answer 1

you can wrap your control in a div and then use some jQuery to make it popup when you click a a link.

    <div id="popupDiv" style="display:none;"> your control here </div>
    <a id="popupLink" href="#"> Popup text </a>

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function () {

jQuery("#popupLink").click(function (event) {
                event.preventDefault();
                jQuery("#popupDiv").fadeIn("slow");
            });
</script>
