Description

Hi,

Well em making an application and i need lots of customization in that.. and I strongely feel the need of 3 updates..

1) maximize dialog

2) minimize dialog

3) HTML replace/overwrite, It means that when I open a dialog, JQ creates a DIV structire and display it as dialog, I strongly feel that there should be some option to replace that html on the fly...

may be dialog({'structure':'#myDialogVer'})

a simple explanation of need of this is: lets say I want the header bar to be at bottom, left, right or may be with some other buttons not related to dialog actions directly.. and so on.., so instead of creating whole class clone and altering it.. just HTML replacement will do the trick and user will be able to enjoy the dialog features. This is also gona open doors to many further options. specially really flexible layouts.

Thanks

If we allow users to completely customize a dialog's layout, we won't have any way to ensure that it will function properly. If you need something that customized you can either build everything yourself in the content area and hide the titlebar, or you'll need to build a separate plugin.
