What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. visit http://www.viewwestaspen.com, then click one of the 3 buttons at top.
2. move one of the price sliders
3. click one of the properties in the results

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would like to have the modal window have the dark background color, but I see a flash of white, 
and can't seem to figure out what element it is that is white. I have set css for all nyro elements 
to the desired color but still get the white flash. Is it just impossible to avoid this with an iframe?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
The effect is least noticeable in firefox, quite noticeable in safari and IE.

Please provide any additional information below.

First of all, I would like to say that your website looks great!

Regarding your problem, did you try to set the iframe background in CSS with
something like:
#nyroModalContent iframe {
  background: #yourcolor;
}

I don't know if it will works..

If it's not, did you consider use simple ajax load instead of iframe?

Thanks @nyrodev! I love the nyromodal project! This one has been a challenge as the page performs a LOT of 
jQuery to accomplish all the FX. 

Yes, I do have that CSS rule set (#nyroModalIframe) and all the other elements that are contain that and are 
nested within, but still get that white flash. It seems that perhaps browsers simply load an iframe with white 
background first, then handle any css rules that apply. I am working with a developer that created the ajax 
interaction for the property search, and iframe was the route he chose, but I agree with you- seemed it might 
have made things smoother to have those results load in a hidden div on the page that is loaded into the 
modal window. Let me know if you have any other insight on the white flash issue.
Thanks! -Adam

yes, iframe always works strangely.
That's why I'm using it at least at possible.

I'm sorry I can't help you for your website.

No problem @nyrodev, thanks for the response. I just thought of a total hack I might try- throw an overlay div of 
the correct color over the iframe then fade it out and remove it after the iframe loads the page fully. Ugly but it 
should do the trick. Thanks again!
