Firefox 3.0 now supports showModalDialog()

Javascript function window.showModalDialog() is used to create a modal dialog box that displays the specified HTML document. A modal dialog box, is kind of dialog box which retains the focus while open. The user cannot switch back to parent windows until the dialog box is closed.

This works fine in Internet explorer 4.0 and later version of IE but with Firefox 2.0 or below version it was not working. But there is a good news now that Firefox 3.0 supports showModalDialog() function.
