Thank you for the replies Nate and Richard. I can understand the complexities involved with moving the element back to it's original position in the dom.
I'd like to know why the dialog is moved to the end of the document. Am I correct in saying it's easier to work with an absolutely positioned element that is at the end of the document, which makes it relative to the document and not relative to any parent container? Thank you for all your work on jQuery UI Richard. Rich On Nov 25, 3:33 am, "Richard D.
