Problems with Calendar popup position.

[Jorge Vásquez <jv...@3eyegroup.com>]

Regards to all,

 

The popup calendar that I am using in a form appears displaced to the right
and bottom of the calendar field.  This is happening both in Firefox and
Internet Explorer.  The position of the popup is apparently always the same
´cause as the calendar field appears lower in the page the popup begins to
disappear.  Any ideas on how to force the popup to appear underneath the
field and in the foreground?

 

Thanks in advance,

JV

Hi,

I have the same problem with calendar positioning (with MyFaces Core 1.1.4
and Tomahawk, 1.1.5 Snapshot)

 

BTW, with MyFaces 1.1.1 positioning worked perfectly

 

Regards

Martin

Please somebody help me with this,

I have detected the source of the error but its javascript-related and to be
honest I suck at javascript.

 

The error takes place in the file:  popupcalendar.js.

 

In the following lines (1324-1383):

 

    try

    {

        do {

            aTag = aTag.offsetParent;

            leftpos += aTag.offsetLeft;

            toppos += aTag.offsetTop;

        }

        while (aTag.tagName != "BODY");

    }

    catch (ex)

    {

        // ignore

    }

….

 

Somehow the elements that I have containing the img that activates the popup
cause problems and the offset ends up being greater, causing the popup to
appear displaced to the left and to the bottom.  

Is this a bug?  Has anyone had a similar problem?  If so how have you solved
it?

 

Cheers,

Jorge Vásquez
