How do I create bookmarklet to overlay html/div layer and CSS from external file

Question

I'm trying to find a way to create a bookmarklet which will load (from an external file) a new layer/div with other html and css and overlay it on the existing page.

Does anyone have a bookmarklet example for this they could share please?

I can create the div with the new html content and CSS classes I am just not sure how to write the bookmarklet and javascript/jquery function to load new content on top of the existing page.

Thank you very much!

Try this code, obviously it can be improved, but it works. You have to minifiy it and be sure to add "javascript:" before pasting it in your browser address bar.

javascript : (function (e, a, g, h, f, c, b, d) {
    if (!(f = e.jQuery) || g > f.fn.jquery || h(f)) {
        c = a.createElement("script");
        c.type = "text/javascript";
        c.src = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/" + g + "/jquery.min.js";
        c.onload = c.onreadystatechange = function () {
            if (!b && (!(d = this.readyState) || d == "loaded" || d == "complete")) {
                h((f = e.jQuery).noConflict(1), b = 1);
                f(c).remove()
            }
        };
        a.documentElement.childNodes[0].appendChild(c)
    }
})(window, document, "1.3.2", function ($, L) {

    //your code here (a div with some content)
    $("<div style='width:500px;height:400px; border:5px solid black;  background-color:white; box-shadow:10px 10px 10px black; position:fixed; top: 150px; left:150px; z-index:99999'><h1 style='margin:150px'>hello world</h1></div>").appendTo("body");
});

EDIT:

here is the same code using an external document embedded in an iframe:

javascript:(function(e,a,g,h,f,c,b,d){if(!(f=e.jQuery)||g>f.fn.jquery||h(f)){c=a.createElement("script");c.type="text/javascript";c.src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/"+g+"/jquery.min.js";c.onload=c.onreadystatechange=function(){if(!b&&(!(d=this.readyState)||d=="loaded"||d=="complete")){h((f=e.jQuery).noConflict(1),b=1);f(c).remove()}};a.documentElement.childNodes[0].appendChild(c)}})(window,document,"1.3.2",function($,L){$("<div style='width:500px;height:400px; border:5px solid black;  background-color:white; box-shadow:10px 10px 10px black; position:fixed; top: 150px; left:150px; z-index:99999'><iframe style='width:100%; height:100%;' src='http://www.htmlcodetutorial.com/frames/hello.html'></iframe></div>").appendTo("body");});
