params for iframe modal
More info: Currently I do it like below, and it works, but I feel there is a better way.
function customModal() { m = new Control.Modal($(id1),{ iframe: true, width: 640, height: 480 }); m.href=m.href+"?param1=val1¶m2=val2"; m.open();
} ...

If the href's are going to change around a lot, your method works fine. There is probably a slightly more elegant way, but you're not missing anything huge. The library has two use cases in mind, overriding static anchor tags, and exposing the entire API to do what you want if that's not enough. Since the latter sounds true for you, you're down the right path.

A newbe question: How do I pass parametes to the link I open in the iFrame? The values of the parameters would change in a runtime, so each opening of the modal should issue a call with different parameters' values. I understand somehow I'll have to modify href property of the Control.Modal instance, but how? I'd appreciate a code snippet.
