Well, by now we've probably all seen the fancy new thing that many web sites are doing sometimes when they need you to make a choice. They "dim out" the page and put up a "window" over it that focuses your attention on what they need you to do. I've seen it on various sites and they use JQuery or some other JavaScript library to do it, I assume. Anyway, it's kind of a nice technique and I was wondering about doing something like it in a VFP form. Perhaps it could be done with the GDIx tools. I don't think it can be done with a standard image control in VFP. I'm not sure they offer that type of transparancy, but perhaps I've just not hit on the right combination of properties. Anyway, just wondering . . .
