Modeless popups

What is the best way to do modeless popups with RichFaces? I basically need two windows that have some communication between them.

I am using JBoss Seam and have been looking at how to do this with RichFaces with little hope. It looks like I will have to possibly do something with javascript or JQuery perhaps.

Thanks nbelaevski, I will check it out.

I see that this makes the modalPanel modeless, but it still has to be contained in the parent correct? I actually need two windows for dual monitors. The second window will be launched and controlled by the first.

Thanks again.

Yes, both panels will be placed inside parent browser window. There's no such component in RF that can be placed outside parent window.
