There are two window's edge styles. The default edge style of a dialog window is raised. Let's pop up two modeless dialog boxes so we can compare their edges. Pop up here the raised-edge window, defined as:

window.showModelessDialog('010820.html','',
  'edge:raised;dialogLeft:500');
Pop up here the sunken-style box, defined as:

window.showModelessDialog('010820.html','',
  'edge:sunken;dialogLeft:100');
Notice that the only way to pop up two dialog boxes is to have the first one be generated by the showModelessDialog() function. Here, we used this function for both windows in order to let you play around with them.

For more on modal and modeless dialog boxes, go to Column 90, Modal and Modeless Dialog Boxes.
