var tmp = $("#temp")[0];
// table invisible
$("#tableells")[0].style.display="none";
// do temp element visible
tmp.style.display="";
// fill temp element with data of record (name is par of function)
tmp.innerHTML = name;
// here i want to change size of modal window 

Answer 1

You have a couple different options.

1) To let SimpleModal determine the size based on the new content, call:

$.modal.setContainerDimensions();

2) To tell SimpleModal what dimensions you want to use:

$.modal.update(height, width);

Hope that helps…
