I think this is what you want:
http://dougmccune.com/PanelTest/bin/JamJarEffect.html
View source to check it out. The key is a simple extension of
TitleWindow. It's called UndraggableTitleWindow and basically catches
the mouse down event on the titlebar and cancels it from propogating
so it never starts dragging.
You still have the problem that clicking on the button keeps making
new instances of the popup over and over, so that should probably be
fixed.
