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?

would be happy to provide more info if i can; i use the time writing
web app in the screenshot, but i do not have ownership or admin access
to it.
thanks!
