'dialogHeight:170px;dialogWidth:150px;status:no;scroll:no;edge:sunken;toolbar:0;center:on;help:off;unadorned:yes;');

showModalDialog works in chrome(its not truly modal though). the problem could be that it is blocking them. Chrome's minimalistic design doesnt even tell you that some times. try adding an exception for you current website.

you can find it under -

Options->Under The Hood Tab-> Content Settings Button -> Popups Tab -> Exceptions button
