in fact it seems that this chaining confuses a lot and yes 'wizarding' was
the next alternative I faced...but after some more investigating, I think I
found the problem:
all my dialogs held the my main JFrame as owner...and that seems to be the
cause of this strange phenomena..as soon as I declared that the owner of my
new dialog should be the second dialog...thank god the problem
disappeared...
cheers
