I just wanted to display reCAPTCHA inside a ModalBox.
This simple task turned out to be quite complicated.
After playing with innerHTML, creating <script> nodes manually and attaching them and other voodoo and black magic and failing to accomplish the desired effect, I settled with displaying the recaptcha inside iframe inside ModalBox.

 Modalbox.show('<iframe src="' + this.href + '?iframe=1"></iframe>', 
  {title: this.title, width: 600});

(The iframe parameter helps to select another layout).
