Well I managed to get the panels to replace without adding a new
ModalWindow to the stack each time:
replacePanel(Panel existingPanel, Panel newPanel, String title,
AjaxRequestTarget target)
{
existingPanel.replaceWith(newPanel);
newPanel.setOutputMarkupId(true);
modalContentWindow.setTitle(title);
target.addComponent(newPanel);
}
This appears to work wonderfully - it allows me to toggle the
ModalWindow content between two different PanelS and it does so cleanly
with no flicker.
However the 'Close' button that I added to each Panel will only work if
no content toggling has taken place. Once the content has been toggled
the Close button doesn't trigger a modal close. The 'X' in the top right
of the Modal still works fine.
