For some reason, I can no longer reply to this thread, maybe because it's too old: http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-ui/browse_thread/thread/09477946d06ea795/e97a9c42b619e246#e97a9c42b619e246 Question is the same: Is there any chance of getting support for fixed position dialogs any time soon? I tried the workaround Patrick suggested, but ran into various issues, incl pieces of the dlg scrolling with the window while other parts didn't, and other anomalies. Thanks for reading,
