I'm not sure what the problem is in the first place. A <div> element
does not obscure its content... otherwise it would be a pretty silly
element to have.

Søren, if you are trying to hide a <select> element so that you can use
javascript to reveal it when appropriate, you do it like this:

<style type="text/css"><!--
   .hidden { display:none; }
   .visible { }
- --></style>

<div id="hidable" class="hidden">
<select>
...
</select>
</div>
<a onclick="reveal('hidable'); return false;">reveal</a>

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
   function reveal(elementId)
   {
      var element = document.getElementById(elementId);

      if(element &amp;&amp; element.className == 'hidden')
      {
         element.className = 'visible';
      }
   }
// --></script>

This is independent of any tab libraries that you are using. If you need
to use <html:select> instead of just plain-old <select>, it doesn't matter.

Hope that helps,

Try how? I'm guessing you're running into an Internet Explorer 'feature' 
  whereby native controls always show up over the top of other HTML. If 
that's the case, you need to use an iframe as a z-index 'buffer' region.

Try Googling for IE control layers and iframes for more info.
