It was teste on IE 6+, FireFox 0.9+, Safari and Opera 7+.

The subModal works by placing a semi-transparent div over the browser, blocking access to the content below while still providing visibility.

This maintains state and doesn’t make someone feel disoriented or lost by moving them completely to another page.

Their frame of reference is kept while allowing them to perform a new task (usually closely associated with the content below).

Another div is layered and centered on top of the mask. This div contains an iframe which defaults to a “now loading” page.

In my applications I usually place an animated gif inside of this page to make it appear the server is doing something while the user waits.

Finally the iframe’s source is swapped with the page wished to display. When this page is loaded into the iframe it’s title is swapped with our fake title bar and displayed.

This code supports scrolling the entire browser window, but is not recommended. 

Requirements:

· JavaScript enabled on client side
