Why does my jazz-based application show its login window as a popup?

Our jazz-based web application is currently under development and we've noticed that our login dialog always shows as a popup.  This presents problems to users that have popups blocked or this new window appears behind the main browser window (the user is left looking at a "Loading..." message forever).

Does anyone know what makes the login dialog appear as a popup and not in the browser window?  Is this something we have specified in our code or does the Jazz Framework make this decision?

Thanks!

The login behavior is provided by the Foundation Web UI component, and this is the way it is designed to work. For some background on technical difficulties, see this work item (which is about a slightly different topic, but probably relevant to the initial login experience as well):

may be it has to do with the authentication format you are using like Basic. or are you using OAuth?
