A dialog counter-bug system for GUI'ers

[Tal'Rarity]

I was thinking of submitting this today after just making it. I know it is simple, but only about 5% if even that of wc3 know how to do this without using jass/vjass.

Let me view your opinions guys.

I have no idea what a "counter-bug" system could be. To get an understanding before having to read those triggers or downloading the map you might add screenshots for convenience.

Another worth noting bug, is fact that after using TriggerRegisterDialogButtonEvent, the GetClickedButton() native, will return null. Mentioned function requires specific button as argument and, blizz programmers assumed that retrival of actuall handle won't be needed in such case. Here, you have that opportunity, handle will be retrieved via trigger id.

Basically I made a GUI version of http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/submissions-414/system-dialog-button-254366/

If you don't use dialog's often you might have never noticed that it only works for whoever clicks it first.
