title: How to fire an event from thickbox without closing it?
body: <p>I'm working with thickbox where i need to use asp controls and have to call the events of the corresponding controls as well. Recently i faced an issue like, asp control's events are not getting fired when used within the thickbox. Following are the step by step procedure on my issue:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>I need to fire an asp button click event from the thickbox without closing the thickbox.</p></li>
  <li><p>In order to solve #1, i used the following script:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  function doPostBack(element) {
      tb_remove();
      setTimeout('__doPostBack(\'' + element.name + '\',\'\')', 500);
  }
  </code></pre></li>
  <li>#2 fires the event and closes the thickbox window. I need to display a label on the thickbox window and closing the window makes it impossible.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>I tried the tb_show() method for displaying the thicbox but the window will be displayed while debugging using firebug only and the close button will not work then. 
  Any suggestions will be helpful...</p>
