is there a good way to open show an iframe in a jQuery dialog window?


i want to use a jquery dialog window to show an iframe. i am running into
all sorts of issues.
first off, i want the dialog to only show when the iframe is loaded. i
tried to create the iframe w/ visibility set to hidden, and then do a
.dialog() on it, but apparent jquery appends the iframe to the dom at this
point, and thus the iframe is reloaded, and we have to wait.
also, when i close the dialog, jquery appends the iframe again, which means
the iframe is getting reloaded all over again, which wastes resources on my
sever etc. is there a clean way to do this?
