I think you want to schedule the connection for the
NSModalPanelRunLoopMode runloop mode. This is the mode that is
used for modal windows.
You mean with scheduleInRunLoop:forMode: ? ...but that's only
available since 10.5
I don't know of a good alternative that's 10.4-compatible, short of
running the NSURLConnection on a background thread with its own runloop.
But have you considered _not_ using a modal panel? IMHO, modal panels
are a "UI smell", to coin a phrase. Does it really need to be
impossible for the user to interact in any other way with the app
while that panel is open? Usually a sheet will suffice, and sheets
don't use a special runloop mode, so that would solve your problem.
