Does someone know a way to "simulate" the showModalDialog function so the
non IE browsers can also make use of a dialogue window where a user can
select a value that needs to be returned to the parent window?

The showModalDialog method allow for a second parameter that is a data
"structure" which used by the child window and can be passed back to the
parent page afterwards. This is the functionality that I also need to be
working in e.g. Netscape 4.7x.

thanks

please also reply to my email address as well.

You can bring up a modal dialog with trusted script:

netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege('UniversalBrowserWrite') ;
  var win = window.open('whatever.html', 'windowName', 'modal=1')
Instead of setting returnValue you need to directly manipulate the
opener window and its properties and call the code you want to run after
the dialog is done

Thanks for the tip,

would it be possible to give a sample of how to manipulate the 'opener'
window properties once the modal window is closed?
Would  it be something in the line of

var win = window.open('whatever.html', 'windowName', 'modal=1');
localvar = win.someproperty; -- where someproperty was defined in
whatever.htm
