so I've been using SimpleModal for a while and it's quite nice, but what it doesn't support is multiple modals open at the same time.

E.g. I have a popup where you can view a block of data about something I can't discuss, and there's a Delete button there - I was just going to make it open up an "Are you sure?" popup when I realised I can't do that with SimpleModal.
So what does everyone else use? Anything you can recommend?
Not used it myself but this looks as though it does what you want.
I tend to stick with jQuery UI. http://jqueryui.com/
jqModal as recommended by Techno is great.
One caveat: when loading via AJAX into the modal, there is no "error" event, so if you get a 404/500 error you will see only the modal overlay & the "loading" animation, if you have one.
This is a bit of a PITA.
thanks all.

oh yeah, they call them "dialogs", that's why I couldn't find them in there before. http://jqueryui.com/demos/dialog/
