Thanks for that Zoltan. Looks like it's worth a bit more digging into the css. I had already played with the z-index but that had no effect. There must be something coming from further up the structure tree that is causing it (only in IE, fine in FireFox).
I might subclass the DatePicker in order to wrap it in an outer span like you've shown here to see if that has any effect.
