Hi folks. First time poster. I'm new to CSS, HTML and JavaScript but have used custom code for this website.
Working on this site: www.petitjeanjewellery.ca, password: julesjewels
My question surrounds the shop page. The actual shopping experience takes place at a different URL, https://petitjean.jewelershowcase.com which, before you ask, I cannot modify at all. The squarespace shop page therefore is just a list of hyperlinks pointing to that other site.
When clicking on a shop category, early test users are finding it confusing to be linked away from the 'squarespace' environment and into a new one, with the familiar layout and navigation bar suddenly gone and no way to get back. So I'd like to alert them any time they click on a link beginning with "https://petitjean.jewelershowcase.com". A shadowbox-type alert that says "We are about to launch our online shop in a new tab. Ok/Cancel/Learn More." I'll attach a mockup image.
I'm reading about modals, but can't seem to make them work in squarespace. Nor do I know how to make them appear only when a hyperlink is clicked that begins with "https://petitjean.jewelershowcase.com".

Any ideas?
I've already been down the embedded iframe road, and don't want to go that route.
Thank you in advance!
