I have a small app with couple of text widgets and command buttons. One of the
command button pops up a dialog box. Before the dialog box is popped up, the
text widgets accept input. I can enter/edit text without any problem. But
after the dialogbox is popped up and down the text widgets stop accepting 
any inputs. I don't see any connection between the two. Can you help me?

Also, I would like to use a toggle widget. But it seems that Chris Peterson has
mentioned in the code for Toggle.c that 
	actions = SuperClass->core_class.actions; does not work. So, he has exported 
the action table of command widget. Is there any alternative to what Chris has
done. Has it been fixed in release 4?

I was told that toplevel shell can have only child, but it seems to me that
the popup shell is also a child of toplevel. Am I wrong?

Suppose I have a cmdBtn which calls XtPopup ,to popup a dialog box with done and
cancel buttons,in it's callback function. In the DialogDone or DialogCancel 
function, is it possible to find out the name of that cmdBtn?
Thanks a LOT. Manu Das
