In the main windows, 10 project names are shown. Each project name is a  
link to a popup to show the project detail. Code:

\<%= link\_to h(project.code), project, :popup =\>  
[‘detail\_window’,‘height=560,width=900,resizable=yes’] %\>

This works fine if the user closes the detail window after viewing it.

There is a problem if the user clicks another project _without_ closing  
the detail window first. Since the project window is bigger than the  
detail windows, the detail window is refresh but it is not the top-most  
window.

It seems to the user nothing refresh when clicking different project  
(the reality is the popup window is refreshed behind the project  
window).

So, how can I set the popup detail windows to be top-most (even it’s  
opened before)?

Thanks
