        .Width(500)
        .Height(450)%>

    .LinkText("Open")
    .Button("Add Hi", "addHi")
    .Button("Say Hi", "sayHi")
    .Button("Close", "closePopup")
    .Content("Popup with buttons, each button has a js function for the click event")

%>
<script type="text/javascript">
    function closePopup() {
        $(this).data('api').close();
    }

    function sayHi() {
        alert('hi');
    }

    function addHi() {
        $(this).prepend('<p>hi</p>');
    }

    function onClose() {

Autosize (jQueryUI)

Open any popup and try resizing the browser (try to make it smaller than the popup), work on popups from other helpers as well

Notes:

When there is more Popup helpers declared that have the same .Name(string), they will share the same popup window, so opening one will close the other.

for jQueryUI popup position can be 'center', 'left', 'right', 'top', 'bottom' or [x,y] (e.g. [350,100])
