I dont know how we can do Modal window in webobjects.
May be someone else in the list do.

Just to pick up what somebody else (David LeBer) has already said in this thread - modal windows in your browser are not a WebObjects problem. WO will happily generate any html, to any standard, xml, javascript, etc, that you tell it to. Digression: I find it mildly irritating when people refer to standard, simple javascript or css tricks as "AJAX"; I always think that Shakespeare got it wrong when he said that "a rose by any other name would smell as sweet".


Some of these tricks can be solved in interesting ways within WebObjects, which is when they become of interest to the list. Until then, some html/css/javascript resource is more likely to have your answer.

Making a window popup is trivial - just use the target binding with some name. I imagine that it would be possible to make it modal with some javascript, but the technique may well not be very portable. eg:
