I was kind of surprised to see that
a rich library like dojo does not come with
warning/confirm boxes out of the box.

It's frustrating if you build an application
use nice dialogs and then when you need
a confirm dialog - an essential element of a dialog -
you have to stop:

a) There is nothing that dijit or dojo provide as
far as something similar to the std javascript alert/confirm

b) you cannot build it because dialogs are not meant to be
opened on top of other dialogs.

Unfortunately that's a common use case:

eg open dialog. press a button to trigger an action.

I have defined some hotkeys via dojo.connect

When I show a dialog I assume all connected events to be suspended.

eg:I want to open an Opendialog with Ctrl-O and then want
to deactivate the Ctrl-O event until this dialog is hidden.

This works great on IE out of the box but fails on FFox, which keeps all events alive.

Anybody has a workaround or fix for this?

Thanks,

Hi,
I'm having a little problem with dialog I'm using. This dialog is invisible most of the time, and brought up when specific events occur, using .show() (and then going back to invisibility using .hide())
I could control the color of the dialog as it opens (the color of the animated popping dialog) by setting the explodeSrc (so the zoom-in color is set by the color of the explodeSrc div), but the color of the zoom-out is not affected by that. Do you know how can I change the zoom-out animation color?

Thanks in advance.

I have a dijit dialog form which is used for data entry. Once the user clicks OK the data is written to a database and the dialog is closed (using HIDE method). However when I click the dialog button again, it still shows the previous data entered... it is still accessing the cache however I have set the refreshOnShow & preventCache attributes for the dialog:
