<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>What you need to do is draw a transparent (or 10% alpha grey) background in the top-most movieclip, maybe the entry frame if it is layered above the pages, and ensure the interactivity is on top of that. That fakes the modal thing - I think you might have to add an event handler to the icon you drew the background into so clicks don't pass through. Good thing for a custom event handler in the entry frame I think.</FONT><BR>
