It looks like there are a lot of "popup" plugins and tutorials out
there, but I'd still rather stick with the nice jQuery UI dialog API.
If I have to ditch it, is there a way to use the jQuery modal overlay
when doing my own popup?

I tried to read the theming information and just hide the dialog's
title bar to see if that was possible, but I'm not sure why these
tests didn't do anything??

$('#ui-dialog-title-dialog').text('HELLO WORLD');
$('#ui-dialog-title-dialog').hide();

But trying to un-theme it like that might be tricky?  Especially
because I DO use jQuery UI-themed dialogs elsewhere on my page and I
don't want to kill them at the same time.

Oh, OK, well for some reason this DOES work:

$('.ui-dialog-titlebar').hide();

But now I want to remove the margin it puts around my own content....
I played with margins of the ui-dialog-* classes but couldn't figure
that one out.  Can someone tell me how to zero out the margins or
whatever it's putting around my content?  That's all I need to get it
working I think!
