Thanks for the explanation, Barney... I guess it's just a limitation I'll have to live with. I can hide the select below my 50% opaque DIV, but the iFrame is using selects that are becoming managled visibly, along with some of the text, in the iFrame...perhaps it's because the iFrame is wrapped in a DIV with a z-index...I don't know.
I'll just have to do some experimenting... If you have any thoughts, I'd love to hear them. Can't understand why the display in the iFrame containing some selects is corrupting when the iFrame is scrolled. When I mouse back over the display, the selects and text clears right up...
