Now this is a rather annoying problem. On http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/objects/select.asp you can read about the select-tag (drop down list): "This element is a windowed control and does not support the z-index attribute or zIndex property." (Also see http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/properties/zindex. asp)
In practice, any windowed element will appear to be "on top of" any non-windowed element. The only solution I know of is to manually (with JavaScript) hide the drop down lists while showing anything above them and then show (unhide) them again. You could hide all drop down lists or only the ones "behind" the object. -- Original message -- Hi, I am using this line to display a calendar using javascript in my jsp. <div id="popupcalendar" class="text" style="position=absolute;top:0;left:0;zIndex:10"> </div> This calendar happens to display the calendar behind the drop-down boxes, i.e. the calendar appears behind drop-down boxes (the drop down box is not clicked). Can anybody suggest a quick solution?
