title: Non blocking alert for a chrome extension popup window
body: <p>I'm making a chrome extension and for it I need to add in some non blocking alerts to the pop up window. Regular alerts pause the javascript code execution and the client does not want that. I tried using jQuery's UI Dialog box but when I click the "OK" button to close it, the popup window loses focus and closes as well. Any advice on how to either add persistence to the popup window or on how to create a non blocking alert from the popup? </p>
  
  <p>UPDATE: The problem is that content.js is the one creating the alert. So when i click it the popup loses focus and closes. Is there any way that I can create an alert attached to popup.html instead of to the page loaded in the current tab? </p>
