How did you do this? Did you modify your xmonad.hs to achieve this? Yes. (I haven't done it; that's how you *would* do it.)

Doesnt the firefox window has to get a property which tells the windowmanager to get it floating? That's one way (_WM_TRANSIENT_FOR). There are other ways, including manually telling xmonad to float it (by mod-dragging), or writing some rules based on other window properties. See http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad/XMonad-ManageHook.html for the EDSL API docs and http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Doc-Configuring.html for general information on configuring xmonad. If that's too technical, look at the example configs on the wiki.
