Hi,

probably this is related and might help: In some cases (portal environment,
but
browser-independent...) we also experienced problems with popup positioning 
(using tr:panelPopup...).

We introduced a local patch for the trinidad-impl file 
/src/main/javascript/META-INF/adf/jsLibs/PanelPopup.js
which fixed our positioning problem. The only change we made was in the 
_getOffsetParent() function. 

This is the original (please note: We're on Trinidad 1.0.5) method:

/**
 * Get the element to add to the dialog to, to ensure dialog
 * positioning
 */
TrPanelPopup.prototype._getOffsetParent = function()
{
  for (var elem = this.getContent(); elem != null;
    elem = elem.parentNode)
  {
    if (elem.tagName && 'form' == elem.tagName.toLowerCase())
    {
      return elem;
    }
  }
  return document.body;
}

And this is our patched version (we just omitted the for-loop)

/**
 * Get the element to add to the dialog to, to ensure dialog
 * positioning
 */
TrPanelPopup.prototype._getOffsetParent = function()
{
  return document.body;
}

As we don't know, what the for-loop was for (perhaps anyone could give a
hint...)
we can't claim this to be a general solution, but probably it's a hint that 
might be useful...

Best regards, Carsten
