I just noticed that in example 3 on the demo page: "true modal", if you open
either example, you scroll the page they move  along with it. Does this
still qualifies as modal ? In my understanding, modal means no interaction
is possible outside the focused area i.e. the window .

Klaus,

  I've done a little investigation with FF 2.0 & Firebug's NET view. The
images from quirksmode are "preloaded" (downloaded despite being a child of
a hidden element). The images in jqModal are not "preloaded" (in FF at
least...). I think this has to do with the fact that they're part of the
background styling, rather than existing as an element of their own.  e.g.
<div style="background: url(preload.gif);" ...>  vs. <img src="preload.gif"
... />

  Do you know of any way around this? I *could* have the plugin go through
each element in a dialog, examine the background styling, and if it contains
a image url; extract it into a faux hidden image tag. Seems very un-jqModal
though... ;)
