I'm not aware that PHP can ask a browser to open a second window

What I'm suggesting would LOOK like a second window appearing on top
of the primary window, then going away, when it would actually be a
single page cleverly styled.

PHP could not open a second window unless you found a way to hack the
target attribute in an href link.
OK, I see what you mean: PHP could modify links & buttons on a page
being downloaded so that a second window would be opened
(target="_blank") [if permitted by the browser settings] when the
user tried to navigate. However, that child window couldn't close
itself like a modal dialog does without using JavaScript, which is
the driving constraint of this whole thought-problem.
I have done some clever styling, but I am unaware of how you could hide
all of the toolars, etc.
Toolbars? No, I'm not that clever. I was only referring to
disabling links and form fields within the HTML page itself. The
best I could do using this technique wouldn't exactly mimic a modal
dialog, just approximate one.
