AutoCompleteTextField: position of list doesn't factor in scrollbar location in IE6 on complicated page

2010-03-27 Thread Peter Jones
I have *AutoCompleteTextFields *on two apps that misbehave in IE6 when the
page is scrolled at all.  The choice list appears above where it should, off
by the distance that the page is scrolled down by.  The position works
correctly in FF.

The wicket examples page doesn't exhibit this behavior, so I'm wondering if
a) this is related to my page layout being more complicated than the
examples page or b) this issue has been resolved (I'm using 1.3.6)?  Anyone
seen this?

Thanks
Pete J

Hi,
   
I'm excited by this idea for two reasons: 1) it would be a good
 design
exercise and 2) it might help out the Wicket cause... Oh, and 3) I
   suspect
my wife would look hot in a Wicket T-shirt!
   
I'm not promising anything - we've got a big release mid-March (yes,
   we're
using Wicket) - but I'd like to get commit rights just in case; what
  do
   I
need to do?

  I don't like to add more bells and whistles to the quickstart.
 If
  we
  add graphics, JS and other stuff, you'd have to remove it for
  every
  project. I like the fact that I can grab the quickstart and just
   start
  hacking without having to strip it from superfluous muck.
 
  I do like the changes Kinabalu proposed though: simple, low

  and removed easily enough.

It also includes links to: examples, javadoc, books

Hi
   
Someone mentioned that we could have a better look  feel for
   wicket,
since
there are no designers in the core team. I proposed a contest,
 to
   make
the
coolest slickest css for wicket. So please feel free to apply.
   
   
Requirements:
   
your css should be compatible with the basic browsers, Firefox
 ,
  IE
   ,
Safari
etc. And retain heavy use of embedded js. And it should be a
 drop
   on,
using
existing id's  hierachy for design.
   
Practical info:
   
The contest ends in 2 months April 2nd.
   
Get the wicket examples here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/wicket/trunk/wicket-examples/
   
If you need it you can put your css in svn at wicketstuff,
 write
  to
this
list for details on howto get commit rights, you should add
 your
  css
to
sandbox and sf user name (
   
   
  https://wicket-stuff.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wicket-stuff/sandbox/
   ).
   
Yes as with all contest there is a prize, you can win the
 wicket
t-shir
along with the honor if your css are the winner. This
http://www.cafepress.com/apachewicket.317298148 or this
http://www.cafepress.com/apachewicket.317298083 depending on
  your
