render html from Google apps script html template

Question

I'm working on standalone web app using Google apps script based on html template. The purpose of the app is kind of a simple gmail but with custom filter. I'v already done that filter and show the list of emails but got stuck on the problem with rendering html body of a message.

Here's the part of code:

Html template:

<table id="myTable">
</table>
<script>
...
             for (var i = 0; i < threads.length; i++)
             {
             var row = table.insertRow(0);
             row.setAttribute("messageId", threads[i].id);
             row.onclick = (function() {
             google.script.run.openMessage(this.getAttribute("messageId"));
             });
             var cell1 = row.insertCell(0);
             cell1.innerHTML = threads[i].subject;
             }
...
</script>

Google script:

function doGet() {
  return HtmlService
      .createTemplateFromFile('index')
      .evaluate().setSandboxMode(HtmlServi‌ce.SandboxMode.NATIVE);
}

...

function openMessage(id)
{
var message = GmailApp.getMessageById(id);
var body = HtmlService.createHtmlOutput(message.getBody());
}
...

The question is: What are the best way to show the message body on click? When I try to open it in new window (window.open()...)b it trows an error, modal window isn't working from html template as well. Thanks in advance for any help!

I finally found the answer to my question, it is - jquery dialog box.

<div id="dialog"></div>

function openDialog(html) {
    $("#dialog-confirm").html(html);

    $("#dialog-confirm").dialog({
        resizable: true,
        modal: true,
        title: "Message",
        height: 500,
        width: 500,
    });
}
