When the dialog is set to modal it should disable all input elements, but I tried a simple example with a textbox and a radiobutton. When the dialog is opened the text-input is disabled as expected, but i still can check the radiobutton. I used the example from the jQuery-ui demo and a simple html with just a input-textbox and the radio.
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="dialog-message" title="Download complete" style="display:none">
<p>
<span class="ui-icon ui-icon-circle-check" style="float:left; margin:0 7px 50px 0;"></span>

</div>
<input type="text"/>
<input type="radio" onClick="showDialog();"/>
<input type="radio"/>
</body>
</html>
And the jQuery:
function showDialog(){
jQuery(function() {
jQuery( "#dialog-message" ).dialog({
position: 'center',
zIndex: 4001,
draggable: false,
modal: true,
buttons: {
Ok: function() {
jQuery( this ).dialog( "close" );
}
}
});
});
}
