Richard, thanks for your reply. (second time I'm replying as the first reply somehow didn't register, interesting).
I'm using jQuery 1.2.6 with jQuery UI 1.6rc1 (core, drag, resize, dialog). I'm testing with FireFox 3.x on Windows XP. Here is a sample of the code: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/85576/ (without modal set to true, but you get the idea). Basically, I'm trying to have a modal dialog -- but so that I can input data into the actual dialog itself. Is it doable, or is the dialog window, when in modal view, never accepting any input?
