Description
Currently iframes are being used in multiple locations (ie. thickbox, plugin re-activation, etc) and in each case, theres generally a function for the header and footer, or its inline.
What i suggest, Is to create a standard set of admin templates which print the headers out for the pages.
And a side suggestion:
As an added bonus, It should probably be possible to automatically detect if it was loaded via thickbox ($_GET[TB_iframe] shouldnt be set) and serve the correct header (ie. Full admin side menu if no thickbox)
Change History
- Milestone changed from 2.7 to 2.8
I'll leave full implementation until 2.8 for this.

Punting to be evaluated in next development cycle due to time constraints.

The idea of automatically detecting if a thickbox page has been loaded via thickbox, and serving the correct header, has a downfall i just realised, The CSS of the thickbox pages really dont work that well with a full admin surounding them.. Worth a look though IMO.
I'll probably give this ticket a shot at some stage.
