I've avoided the frameworks, although I have worked
with jQuery Mobile, just to get a feel for it.  No development
with it, however.

I'd rather not work with a framework completely, but is it
possible to somehow use parts of it only, such as a modal
functionality, if it has one?

Are you using a framework like jQuery Mobile or Sencha? I've had great luck
with jQuery Mobile, and a colleague of mine has had similar luck with
Sencha.
