I use the modal window as described by Keenan Payne, made with HTML5 & CSS3. I would like it to close when the user clicks on the darkened background, outside the modal window. Does anybody knows how to do this?

You have to change the target on something different than #openModal. You can import jQuery, put this in <head> section:
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
and add this code right before </body> tag:
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#openModal").click( function() {
if (!$("#openModal>div").is(":hover")) document.location.href='#';
});
</script>
So when user clicks on the overlay the target will change on '#' and the modal will be closed.
