I think you will have to put quotes around "background-color".

If I try the first I get this error:

missing : after property id
Line 1
$('#example1').dialog({modal: true, overlay: { background-color:
'gray', opacity: 0.5 } });

By default the UI Dialog is not modal. You can make it modal be setting the
modal option to true. That also enables the overlay option, which you can
set to a css hash. Example:

$(el).dialog({
  modal: true,
  overlay: { background-color: 'gray', opacity: 0.5 }

});

If you want to do it via a stylesheet:

.ui-dialog-overlay { background-color: gray; opacity: 0.5 }
