A simple jQuery plugin to open a modal window

Question

Please, I need help.

I am new to jQuery and I have link which on click should open a modal window of some sort (I want to be able to controll the position of it).

This is a simple window. It only contains some text and I want it to have just a closing button. That is all.

How can I do this in jQuery? I want something very simple, without to much dependencies.

Thank you all.
