Re: Open Django template in dialog box (not in window)

Collin,

Excellent sample.  Thanks!  That's a nice standalone summary
of how to do a popup dialog via jQuery and Ajax.  Worth posting
to a tips page or blog if you have such, so other people can
Google it.

Kamal, does this fill in the gaps for you?  If not, let us know.
