1. how to write source code Avoid "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs" 

   (use javascript window.showModalDialog(url, name, properties);)

2. [ call direct window.showModalDialog ] vs [ call window.showModalDialog under ajax success function ]

when click very fast -> They alert "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs".

why when click slow speed -> [ call direct window.showModalDialog ] don't show "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs".

but [ call window.showModalDialog under ajax success function ] show "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs". (How to avoid message like upper case)

thank you Somjet

while I am sure you will get the answer from illuminati here sooner or later, asking on dev apps for Firefox or on IRC under #developers will get you a faster reaction.

And - maybe - browsing through different questions and answers on MDN may be more practical.

You would have to make sure to wait at least 3 seconds between creating pop-ups to avoid this check box and also not to send too many dialogs.
