Probably an issue within the browser, see below

    *Objet :* s:inputSuggest : some others improvement to do

    I've noticed some more improvements to make on this sandbox component.
    I don't know if they really comes from the component itself but I
    here they are :
     
    1- I have a small JSF page with an s:inputSuggest component and an
    t:inputDate component under it. 
    When clicking inside the inputSuggest a dropdown box open and
    displays firsts suggests. The problem is that under IE (not Firefox)
    the dropdown-box is displayed behind the inputDate, hiding some
    suggests.
     
That is a bug in the IE, the fix is to plug an iframe under the panel...
has to be fixed on the javascript side.



    2- It also seems that under Firefox (not IE), the page vertical
    lenght is increased depending on the number of items in the
    inputSuggest. A white space is displayed under the last element of
    the page. In my case I try to avoid the use of the page scroller in
    my webapp pages, and now there is a scroller displayed because of
    this big white space.
     
    Are those problems come from the browsers or the component
    implementation ?
     

both problems are browser specific and have to be targetted at the 
javascript level.
