I've been asked top implement one of those annoying dropdown message boxes that asks something like "would you like to take a survey?" on our corporate portal. I see them often-- I think Its a <div> that flies down from the top of the browser window , out of nowhere, and then stops in the middle of the browser and asks "would you like to..."

 

While they've always annouyed me, i've been asked to implement this. Is there a plugin or soemthing I can use for this.?

 

I  had some luck with the jquery animations but could not  get the div to fly 'down', only  'up'. Seems there must be a plugin , or native jquey way to do this.

 

Also, once the user clicks either the OK or Cancel, they should not see the message again. I'm thinking I need to store a cookie in the broeser, and the have jquery check if the cookie exists. If it does , dont show the message again. Is that doable in jquery?

 

Thanks for any advice
