How can I make window.showmodaldialog work in chrome 37 and above

I am adding here a workaround for window.showmodaldialog, although this is not a perfect workaround because this will not break the code execution as showmodaldialog was doing, instead this will open the popups.


Just put the below code in head section of page.

window.showModalDialog = function (url, arg, feature) {
        var opFeature = feature.split(";");
       var featuresArray = new Array()
        if (document.all) {
           for (var i = 0; i < opFeature.length - 1; i++) {
                var f = opFeature[i].split("=");
               featuresArray[f[0]] = f[1];
            }
       }
        else {

            for (var i = 0; i < opFeature.length - 1; i++) {
                var f = opFeature[i].split(":");
               featuresArray[f[0].toString().trim().toLowerCase()] = f[1].toString().trim();
            }
       }



       var h = "200px", w = "400px", l = "100px", t = "100px", r = "yes", c = "yes", s = "no";
       if (featuresArray["dialogheight"]) h = featuresArray["dialogheight"];
        if (featuresArray["dialogwidth"]) w = featuresArray["dialogwidth"];
       if (featuresArray["dialogleft"]) l = featuresArray["dialogleft"];
        if (featuresArray["dialogtop"]) t = featuresArray["dialogtop"];
        if (featuresArray["resizable"]) r = featuresArray["resizable"];
       if (featuresArray["center"]) c = featuresArray["center"];
      if (featuresArray["status"]) s = featuresArray["status"];
        var modelFeature = "height = " + h + ",width = " + w + ",left=" + l + ",top=" + t + ",model=yes,alwaysRaised=yes" + ",resizable= " + r + ",celter=" + c + ",status=" + s;

        var model = window.open(url, "", modelFeature, null);

       model.dialogArguments = arg;

    }
