Page Designer: Modal Prompts Appear Behind Browser in Run Mode

If you add a message box to your DHTML page, the message box appears behind Internet Explorer when activated in run mode. In addition, you cannot move Internet Explorer out of the way in order to view the message, because the message is modal. When you hear the beep that indicates a message is on the screen, select the Visual Basic application from your taskbar to view and clear the message.
