Have you tried showModelessDialog

[gits]

the standard method is to use window.open(); which always work ... to produce a cross-browser modal dialog you could create a custom dhtml-dialog out of a combination of 'divs'

kind regards

Firefox and others do not support showModalDialog and showModelessDialog. They're non-standard.

Hi,

I have created a jQuery function: showModalDialog which works on all major browsers: IE, Chrome, Safari and Firefox.
