I work for a company that has serveral outlying branches and I'm wanting to set up a webpage to use as a phone directory. I'm wanting to create this page so that I can incorporate it as a web part into our Sharepoint.

Basically, what I'm looking for is having all of our outlying branches as links, then when the user clicks on the link, it drops down an entire phone number listing for that branch. I'm just wondering if anyone out there has any good suggestions for templates to use or maybe even code that I could manipulate.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You could use a jQuery tooltip ( Google jQuery tooltip). This is one I found which says that links and images can be shown in the tooltip, but it works on hover, not on click so you have to keep the mouse over the link or tooltip.

You could also use javascript or jQuery to open a popup window with a separate page with links, different page from every link. Here's one example. Click Simple Window Modal.

Google jQuery popup window.
