Greyed out background?

[barmstrong]

This is awesome by the way! Was looking for something this like this for a while so I wouldn't have to include jquery just for a nice text box!

One thing I was wondering: has anyone gotten this to work with a greyed out background? This would give it a more model appearance, which is useful at times. I tried playing with the overlay related css properties and adding various background/z-index properties, but couldn't get it to set any background page wide. Any ideas?

I did it in Fat Free CRM, check out http://github.com/michaeldv/fat_free_crm/blob/master/public/javascripts/facebox.js

Thanks this worked great! Copied the JS, although I used a background image (png) for the overlay instead of CSS. With CSS it seemed to flicker a bit (in Firefox at least, didn't try it elsewhere). Thanks!
