window.showModalDialog

[Vassili Vladimir]

Hello,

I want to use the window.showModalDialog or any other way to open a popup. The popup appears as a child on another window (the parent) But I want the following functionality: I want the popup to stay on top yet I can edit and make operations on the parent page while the popup is still appears. How can I do that?

Thanks,

Look up "Modal" -- it means the exact opposite of what you intend.

And, showModalDialog() is proprietary to IE and should only be used iof all you are interested in is the dwindling IE user base.
