Rob,
While I was looking into this, I did spend quite a while at the jQModal site
looking at it. I can't off-hand remember why I didn't choose it. Maybe you could
share with me a few code snippets showing what you've done with jQModal. I'm
interested, as I've started hacking up the thickBox code and css to achieve some
styalistic aims.
Thanks,
Chris

No problem.
Also, fwiw I ended up migrating to jqModal instead of thickbox.
My reasoning was that despite TB being a very good plugin, it's not that
customisable without hacking up the code. Whilst I achieved what I
wanted through hacking the plugin, I realised that jqModal was designed
to be a customisable window plugin, whereas TB is supposed to be far
closer to Lightbox and is not so easily manipulated in terms of
behaviour and content as jqModal.
Just my feeling on it, and as I said it is a very good plugin, but it's
worth thinking early on about which one is more suitable for your situation.
Have fun with it!
rob.

Rob,
That is essentially what I ended up doing. I got busy with the coding
so I didn't have time to update this thread, but that is exactly what
I ended up doing.
Thanks for the help though! :o)
Cheers,
Chris
