Hi,

I'm not completely sure but to the best of my knowledge there is no way to tell whether a popup is open or visible but by setting up an 'onOpen' listener; I mean Popup.isVisible() seems to return always false, even if the popup is open and visible. In order to have a reliable isVisible() implementation I think it would suffice to replace

        public void open(Component ref) {
		response("popup", new AuPopup(this, ref));
	}

by

public void open(Component ref) {
<b >                super.setVisible( true );</b>
		response("popup", new AuPopup(this, ref));
	}

Am I wrong by supposing this? Or is there any reason making it advisable to let isVisible() return always false?

With kind regards
