I just checked in an update for one of our cforms samples that reveals a
somewhat nasty visual presentation of the nice calendar widget we use
if placed just above a (multi-line) selection list (like done now) the calendar popup seems to be kept behind that selection list...
anyone that has a clue what is causing this?
As others have said, it's an IE issue, and manipulating z-order doesn't help. :-(
For our app we have added some javascript - just before the popup appears, we do a collision check on all drop-downs on the page (we don't use multi-selects, but it could be extended to include them). Any that collide are hidden until the popup goes away. Originally we just hid all drop-downs, but that was too noticeable.
If you want the code, let me know.
Incidentally Safari/Mac has the same issue with the scroll bars on text areas (they always appear on top).
