Is there any way to create a modal dialog in the html, which should work
in both ie and netscape.
the one window.showmoda ldialog works well in ie, but not in netscape
i found a way to keep the window to setfocus like this
<script>
function SetFocusOnMe () {
this.SetFocus ();
setTimeout("Set FocusOnMe()", 50);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="javascr ipt:setTimeout( 'SetFocusOnMe() ', 50)">
but this gives javascript error

If you do this in Firefox, you get a message saying:
Error: this.SetFocus is not a function
Source File:
...
Line: 8
which is pretty self explanatory - SetFocus is not defined
anywhere as a JavaScript function.
setTimeout("Set FocusOnMe()", 50);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="javascr ipt:setTimeout( 'SetFocusOnMe() ', 50)">
No need for "javascript :".
So you call setTimeout every 50 ms from here, then again every
50ms from inside the function - cool.
but this gives javascript error
Even if it didn't, and it's trivial to fix, what's the point?
The user can simply close your "modal" window. Or if they have
Firefox (and maybe a number of other browsers), prevent you from
setting focus on it at all.
And if they have scripting disabled, your narcissistic 'dialog'
will not be able to be an attention hog at all. What purpose
does a modal dialog have in the context of a web browser?

No. The onload calls it once, then the function calls itself to invoke
after 50 millliseconds. setTimeout only makes one call, setInterval
makes repeated calls (which is what I think you were thinking about
instead of setTimeout).

Hi,
How I can refresh a modal dialog in asp.net?
I open a modal dialog in first with a dropdownlist. To add a element in my
dropdownlist (table), I open a second modal dialog to ask element and save.
When I return in my first modal dialog, dropdownlist is not refreshed.
I don't know how to refresh my first modal dialog to view my new element in
the dropdownlist.
Thanks to help me with this problem!

Hi,
A Modal Dialog does not allow us to highlight the text content inside
<DIV> tag unless I use a <textarea> tag to display that text content.
However, the situation of my software makes it impossible to use
<textarea> and Modeless dialog. I am really stuck!!!
Is there any trick to make <DIV> or <SPAN>'s content be selectable in a
Modal dialog?
Thanks in advance,

Hi NG,
We have a rather large ASP.NET application that uses popups to display
various dialogs to the user. In our work we've come over a rather annoying
"bug":
If we open a modal dialog using the javascript command
window.showModalDialog() we loose the current Session if a new window is
opend from within the modal one (using the window.open() method). The
"funny" thing is that this only occurs if another instance of IE has been

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
