hello:
i should know the answer to this but its confusing me.
i have a client that is wanting a pop up dialog of information and links to
come up when a link is clicked, and then letting it be dismissed and for
it to go a way.

currently the dialog information is beeing added to the dom at the
bottom and the dismiss is working but its not constraining or even
focusing on the information in the dialog. a user that has used it might
know to go to the bottom of the page but ideally they should be drawn to
it and kept with in the dialog until its dismist can some one remind
me what the proper codeing to do this is thanks lucy Greco
