I get a true modal dialog box (not the hack one) in both Firefox and IE on windows. Gmail does a similar thing when you try to leave a page without sending a typed email. -David R On 5/1/06, Serge <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
As far as I know only IE has a modal dialog. What about other browsers? There is some workaround, but it will work not in all cases http://www.eggheadcafe.com/articles/javascript_modal_dialog.asp Does anybody know how to make modal dialog in Firefox? regards, Serge ----- Original Message ----- From: "g.wygonik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flashcoders mailing list" <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Sunday, April 30, 2006 8:40 PM Subject: [Bulk] Re: [Flashcoders] window.onClose -> Flash If you dig in the list archives (if they are still around), i wrote a bit about how i used onBeforeUnload to trigger Flash and i know other people chimed in. In IE-only situations, i found it best to catch the onBeforeUnload event, tell Flash via setVariable, open a modal dialog box (so the main browser won't close) then either have the modal box close itself after a few seconds, or have a localConnection or sharedObject setup to let a Flash movie in the modal dialog know the main Flash was done and it could close itself, which would in turn close the first, main window. whew! :-) There are ways to have a modal box in other browsers, but i don't know the details off the top of my head. fwiw g.
