JavaScript

Hi,

I need to open a javascript dialog (either window.open or window.showModalDialog will do), from an opensocial gadget.

It's just to make the OAuth flow. The problem is that the window gets blocked by the popup blockers.

I know this is possible because facebook gadget does that.

Any ideas please?
