I write in .NEt and in classic ASP. I want to create a modal popup in asp. I like in .NET how the parent page can be disabled and turned a different color. Is this possible in ASP? Or is there no easy solution to get this done? If possible...how?

You can use the ibox javascript, I have used it with good results.

Eric, it's in the samples, you must include ibox/ibox.js in your asp file.

Just use a javascript library to do this. jQuery is a popular choice and there a number of plugins to do this.

You're going to use Javascript to make something like that, I'd recommend you use jQuery. There is a lot of prebuilt libraries to help you do that.
For the modal box, you might start with the jQuery Dialog.

Great! You're going to find a lot of options when it comes to Javascript modal/dialog boxes, but jQuery has an huge community of developers working to create add-ons and improve the code -- in general, you're going to find a lot more use from jQuery than just the dialog box

There are some great JS libraries out there that can help you.
I like jQuery and YUI for their ease of use.
Try this link and look around at some of their Panel offerings.. all of which have a Modal setting that will grey out the background.

Good Luck~

I'd put a vote in for stickywin from the clientcide site. Its all Mootools bases and very sweet to use.
