Modal defined as http://www.webgurusdesignblog.com/2009/02/10-best-modal-boxes-for-web-design-projects/ so what i need is a modal box that overlays some embedded code, and then the captcha is completed the modal box disappears thru ajax and the content behind the modal box is visible and usable. let me know thanks and we can work out a deal. If you already have a pre made solution that is fine aswell.
