Form in fancybox/modal dialog

Hi,

I want to do some pop-up/modal dialog (I'm not sure what's the real name of it :/) with a form inside and after save that data I want that the form close...

As a example I've done this

<%= link_to "Add more", {:controller=>"users", :action=>"new"}, :remote => true, :id => "pop" %>

and this   $(document).ready(function{     $("pop").fancybox();   });

But theres a problem... after I save, inside the popup/modal appears an error ... and when I close it, I have to hit refresh in order to see what's been added.

I know that I have to use some javascript in order to make the new element appear on the table, but how can I make that the modal/popup disappears after save?

Thanks in advance

Fancybox has a function for this:

$.fancybox.close

$(document).ready(function{

$(“pop”).fancybox();

});

$.fancybox.close

I’ve been reading about it and yes, fancybox has that… but how does it knows if it was ok or not?
