Hello,
We have a requirement that when a user click a button to signify he
wants to edit a certain area, everything else on the browser screen but
that area will be disabled. In effect, it's analogous to a modal dialog
box, the difference being the "dialog box" in this case is within the
screen itself, not a separate popup one like a modal dialog box. It's
just a certain area of the screen that becomes enabled when the user
clicks the "Edit" button.
Of course the browser itself is not disabled, so the user can still
type another address and click Go, or click the back button, etc. But
within the page, while editing, the user can't do anything. It'll be
fantastic if we can have a visual indication for this, e.g.: the rest
of the screen gets blurred or something.
Is there a way to achieve this with JavaScript?
Thanks!
