Hi Jim,
visit
http://www.popuptest.com which has examples of all the possible popup
windows to test popup blockers.
You should be able to find good documentation on msdn library for the
showmodelessdialog function.
One thing to be wary of is the differing behavior of this method on XP and
non-XP versions of IE. Some popup blockers also force a front window to the
back if it is called by this method.

the parent window is closed? Maybe something to do with disabling the
parent/owner?
I basically need to have a popup window which is always the top most
browser window, but still allows the user to continue browsing using
the parent browser window (therefore any onblur=self.focus() isn't
suitable), and isn't closed when the parent window is.
Any ideas?
JS only has alert, a modal dialog box.
you can come pretty close to simulating a dialog box with tables & such.
but then you are restricted to the popup-blocker problem. one of my sites
must be recoded because of it.
