Dialog Box using Javascript

I have a web app and I would like to create a dialog box where the user can pick from a list.  Is it possible to do this with Javascript?  If not, do you have any other ideas?

Yes, I have done that, I have developed dialog boxes do perform name searches from the name & address book and also a dialog box that displays a view with check boxes where a user can select an item and submit the dialog box which then runs and agent and refreshes the opener form. Can you give me further details on what exactly you are trying to do ?
Sounds interesting...

pcorreya, though I've build JS-dialog boxes more often too, one to select multiple names from the NAB still puzzles me, due to the 64k limit of a @DbColumn.
If you've already solved that, and don't mind to send it by mail, I am certainly willing to add some points to your score.... ;-))

By the way.... working for Telstra in Australia... do you know anyone there named "Schols"? I know it's a large company, but I feel there is a possibility!
Hello Sno,

best example for that you like to have in web is: mail50.ntf
Look into it for the form: (wAddress)

Espacialy look (if you like NAB lookups) for undocumented commands like this:
@DbCommand("Domino"; "LoadAddressListByName"; NABs; "EntryList"; "20"; FindText);

Or do you think about something else?

There is a Peter & Rudi Schols in our exchange address book. Do you know any of them ?

I have used a very unconventional method to create the web name search dialog for the web. I haven't used @dbcolumn. I use a webquerysave agent which fetches the names from the NAB and returns it back to the dialog box.

pcorreya,
Do we need to post an extra question to get the code for that are are you willing to post it in this question ?
(I'd be glad to post a question, I've got plenty of points to spare).
Rudi is my brother in law... I assume you haven't met him!?
If I remember well, recently left Telstra.

Zvonko, very good suggestion! Should have thought of it myself! Will look at it!
How come you're not back in top 15 yet? Both your Lotus Notes score and your totalscore exceed Antonysinghs.

Thanks!  Window.open is what I ended up using.  I actually used a database I downloaded from note.net but your code was similar so you get the points.
Thanks!
Just make sure you use lowercase "window": JS is case sensitive!
Unless you use a variable Window=window of course....
Crak, how can I close the previous window when chosing a keyword?  The very first window to be specific?  I will be glad to post more points to you for this...

Thanks.
