Description

It would be great to have overlay dialogs using BlockUI (http://malsup.com/jquery/block/) instead of popup windows.

  • priority changed from major to minor.
  • status changed from new to assigned.
  • milestone changed from 0.4 to 0.5.

MSIE looses selection if you don't use popups, so we firstly need to save it. Planned for 0.5.

I would like to vote for this future, the windows add unnecessary clutter to the user's desktop, and may easily lead to unintended behaviour of the editor. Also, modal windows within the browser are just... cool ;)

Actually we just found an effective way to save selection in MSIE and other browsers - popups will be suppressed in the next major version (0.6).
