Summary: Problem with a user menu due to hidden overflow in
sections
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Normal
Component: UsabilityInitiative

The problem is with a dropdown menu, but will affect any absolutely positioned
elements anchored inside the sections element.
This seems to be related to the fact that the element with "sections" class has
hidden overflow or to be more exact it gets overflow:hidden as soon as the
section is opened.
In the gadget I use I've prepared the following fix (I use it just after making
my element visible):
if (typeof $j != 'undefined' && typeof $j.fn.wikiEditor != 'undefined')
{
var nbar = document.getElementById('wikiEditor-ui-toolbar');
var secs = getElementsByClassName(nbar, "div", "sections")[0];
secs.style.overflow = 'visible';
}
Still I'm not sure why is this overflow important at that level. It works fine
in Firefox with visible overflow.
