Given your requirements, you can't go wrong with using jQueryUI. - modal pop-up (check) - easy to control life cycle (check) - good documentation (check) -- http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Dialog - easy to customize look and feel ( same link as above, see "Theming", also check out the theme roller, very cool!)
on the topic of documentation, jQueryUI is "officially supported" and it has it's own mailing list (google group) with all sorts of knowledgeable people to help out. Just my two-cents again. :o) Chris On Fri, Sep 19, 2008 at 2:38 PM, crypto5 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Thanks everybody for responses.
