Problems with window.showModelessDialog on Mozilla

hi all,
I have my application running fine on IE,but now for Browser Compatability,its giving lots of problems on Gecko Browsers.
window.showModelessDialog doesnt seem to be supported in Mozilla,and i have used it considerably on many pages.So please can anyone help me with how to get it up on Mozilla or a replacement for its functionality??? ?

Thanx.window.showModelessDialog always remains on top.

Similarly i want window.open to always remain on top of other windows.I tried alwaysRaised attribute but doesnt seem to work in Mozilla and also onBlur=window.focus() does not work.Any other way?

With modal=yes,the window will behave as a modal dialog which is blocking.

My requirement is that,i want to show a modeless dialog and the control should still go further to the servlet.So with window.open i can achieve the same but only that it does not retain focus.With modal=yes,it blocks the further execution until window is closed.Can there be any other way?

Success!
