submission from guest author John Talton:

Dialogs have been around for years, non-modal and the dreaded modal.  They have of-course made their way to the web. Initialy in the form of simple JavaScript Alert but now as part of the standard CSS.  Many designers have latched onto CSS’s transparency (and Apple’s design) to create glassy looking dialogs.  With the addition of the always popular drop shadow which is part of every designers toolkit.
