NO NO NO.

I would reccommend "Triage" at this point. Since your users are under
your control (Professional trainees are kind of whipped) I would
mandate Internet Explorer. <<<<<< HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED

Or use a popup window.  <<<<<< SECOND EASIEST 

Or a frameset (pop the message into a frame at the bottom/left/right.

Or you could put the WHOLE FORM into a layer and HIDE it whenever you
pop up a floater. 

Or you could put each form element into a layer and hide THAT element
when you show its popup. (Look out for unexpected clipping!) <<<
HARDEST BUT REALLY IMPRESSIVE!

Or you could NOT USE forms and create an input widget in DynAPI.
(that last suggestion is for maschoists, which there are plenty of in
this message base... :) )
