Hello everyone:

I have a button in a form. When you click it, it opens a new window via the 'Open Window' action, you fiddle with some field values, click "ok", it does some stuff to the record you were in when you clicked the button, and closes the window.

Pretty standard stuff.

On the mid-tier, opening a new browser window is kinda uncool and clunky.

I'd really-really like to be able to capture the "Open Window" action inside a frame in a lightbox, have the user do their thing there, and then when they finish, undraw the light box.

Like the "mini-browser" example here:

http://test.thecodecentral.com/demos/lightbox/lightbox.html#void

except with opening my display-only form in the lightboxed frame instead of google, and passing my fields back to the record beneath when the user is done.

anyone do this before?
Can it even be done? If it can, what's the least messy way to accomplish it?

thanks everyone,

-Andy
