[jira] Commented: (WICKET-1355) Autocomplete window has wrong position in scrolled context

["Erik van Oosten (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-1355?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12785895#action_12785895 ] 

Erik van Oosten commented on WICKET-1355:
-----------------------------------------

One disadvantage of positioning the div as sibling of the textfield is that the dropdown div will never be able to extend the area of the first parent with position absolute. I.e. you need to make sure that there is enough room  below the textfield within the parent (make sure some more input fields follow, or just add some empty space). This will happen with modal windows, but this will not be a problem at all when you have no such parent.

This disadvantage outweights the disadvantage of having no visible dropdown div at all.

> When the autocompleted field is located in a scrolled div, the drop-down window is positioned too far down.
