Proper 'on-top' modal dialog popup for mozilla/firefox

[cj@…]

In dialog.js you can make a simple fix to stop the modal windows from 'popping-under' in Moz/Firefox (this is the single most annoying bug and the simplest to fix I've encountered with HTMLAREA)

function Dialog(url, action, init) {
        if (typeof init == "undefined") {
                init = window;  // pass this window object by default
        }
        Dialog._geckoOpenModal(url, action, init);
        window.focus(); // * added by cj@sitemajic.com
};

just add a window.focus(); to the end of the Dialog function, that will force focus back to the main window then kick the modal dialog(s) forward -- works every time for me but I have not tested in all conditions.

removed this changeset again in changeset:159

perhaps this would work:

 };

 Dialog._parentEvent = function(ev) {

as the dialog being in background-bug appears only in gecko and gecko doesn't have the loose-focus-problem.
