modal background blur - cross browser

hello,

when it comes to dhtml-based modals (as opposed to actual modal dialog-
windows or popups), an effect seen all over the web is to render the
background content a translucent shade of dark gray. but something i
have only seen in one place is -- blurring the background. that is,
the content area "behind" the modal is not only gray, but uniformly
blurred. like this:

....i use this webapp & it works in IE and Firefox. but im not sure
how. below is the .css doc for this app. can anybody tell how its
done?

web app in the screenshot, but i do not have ownership or admin access
to it.
thanks!

app is html-based.
