Problem with dojo dialog

Hello,
1. Problem with _in and _near
In my web application, I'm using dojo. I have a dojo dialog popping up at some point.
When the dialog is on, and I try to click the first checkbox in a certain div by using this:
_click(_checkbox(0, _in(_div("div_id_1"))));
Sahi clicks on a checkbox in the dimmed background of the dialog box (That checkbox is not in "div_id_1" at all).
There are many ways to overcome such a thing but I want to point out at the fact that _in and _near don't work with dojo dialogs.

We have used _in and _near with various dojo widgets and they work as designed.
_in and _near are based on DOM hierarchy and nearness. Most probably the div_id_1 is encompassing a lot of other elements too and not just that element you wish to identify. You will have to narrow it down further to something smaller. Btw, if _checkbox(0, _in(_div("div_id_1"))) does not work, try _checkbox(1, _in(_div("div_id_1"))), may be that will fit in.
