Answer 1

I would recommend the jQuery one...

Answer 2

HI, You can use two divs for this purpose. The first div contains all your main page contents and the second one is for disabling the contents. When you fire the event make the second div fill all the UI and it should be on top of the first one. If you have any combo box in the first div then you have to disable it or make it invisible otherwise it will pop out of the first div.

Answer 3

It's called a "lightbox" and it's been discussed dozens of times before.

Answer 4

You can look into creating a JQuery dialog; I believe this will get you the modality you're looking for. I do not think an actual popup window is a solution you want.
