[CForms] calendar and combobox layer z-order
I work with the Cocoon 2.1.4 and Woody forms. There is one small problem
which already became for me persuasive. The dropping out calendar at a
field such as date is made as a layer. And when the field such as date
is beside (above), than a field such as combobox at activation of the
button a calendar the layer with a calendar appears under combobox. It
looks rather ugly and I would not dare to show the customer such
screens.
I work in Internet Explorer 6.0 and I do not know, whether there is a
similar problem in other browsers. I think, it is a mistake in HTML
processing. Setting z-order at a layer does not help even. Combobox
always it appears the uppermost layer.
As many people use similar technology they for certain faced with a
similar problem. It is interesting to me, as they have solved it. I
meanwhile should have calendars and comboxes on big enough distance from
each other. And I already think altering all comboboxes with use of
layers, having refused from standard.
Whether somebody can advise me something?

Please add this comment in bugzilla so the author of the patch can pick
it up - and maybe even provide an additional fix :=)

also, you can try updating manually from
www.mattkruse.com/javascript/calendarpopup/source.html , maybe there is
a newer version. Check with the author as well, maybe he is aware of the
problem.

Thank you.
I found this in buglist
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30040
Patch works.
But it is not complete solution. If I click on calendar DIV zone (for
example I try to change month), combobox still visible.

This was brought up a few weeks before on the list, and someone actually
provided a patch for it. Search the devlist or bugzilla.
It was decided that the patch should be applied to the calendar source
tree rather then forking our own version.
