What are you guys doing when you want information on a calendar item to popup on a page?

At the moment here it is opening a new tab. If you know what setting stop that it would be immediately useful.

Install the Colorbox module and follow the documentation: http://drupal.org/node/1056752#colorbox

I have the colorbox installed and working for the login but I can't see the 'styles setting', I think because of changes to D7 or Views. I've scratched my head for 4 hours looking so I might need a touch more advice.

I haven't set this up in a block rather using it as a page node so that might be the issue?

Made a screenshot. It's in dutch but I think it'll still help you: http://www.diigo.com/item/image/1fbht/tjkb

OK I have the popup working as per the instructions but it lacks data... white empty box.

I can't see anything particularly wrong. Calendar Blindness ;)

And maybe this is your problem:

"If you get an "empty" colorbox you probably need to recheck your selectors in the settings page. You need to fill in the css selector that contains the text you would like to show. This is different for every theme."

It is definitely connected to the selectors. I've managed to get the comments field to show up so that is a start. The Theme is Bartik 7.4. I'm using Firefox, IE is a curse word isn't it? Thanks to everyone for their help to this point, most likely won't get to look at it again for another 12 hours or so.

OK I have it working but I'm not exactly sure what I've changed to bring that about. It may have been caching an error or it might be one of the other 10 things I've clicked in getting here. If I identify the error then I'll report back.
