[jira] Commented: (MYFACES-693) select Combo Box is displayed over popup component instead of hiding behind
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-693?page=comments#action_12331908 ]
Werner Punz commented on MYFACES-693:
-------------------------------------
I checked the code for the popup component, it indeed does not use the iframe fix which is necessary to bypass the
div over drop down bug of the IE releases, I will try to fix it for the trunk first, since it is less critical there.

> Key: MYFACES-693
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-693
> Project: MyFaces
> Type: Bug
> Components: Tomahawk
> Versions: 1.1.0, 1.1.1
> Environment: Client is Windows XP and IE. No problem with Firefox.
> Server is Linux with Tomcat 5.5
> Reporter: Marcel Sansaricq
>
> html select input elements are displayed in front of the tomahawk popup component in IE. The problem is not present in Firefox.
> As I was searching the MyFaces mailing list for a solution to the problem I found a similar issue discussed in the following link:
> >http://www.mail-archive.com/users@myfaces.apache.org/msg05344.html
> In the excerpt below from the discussion, the problem was fixed for the suggest component currently being developed by Werner Punz in the Sandbox:
> "Incidentally, I'm looking into modifying the DHTML piece so that you can avoid the IE bug where a select box is always rendered on top of a div. It turns out that if you create an invisible iframe as a shim of sorts, directly underneath the div, select boxes will properly render underneath it. Of course, this fix is only necessary if you're using the control near a select box, and if you care whether your form renders properly in IE, so it'll be optional.)
> Well solved that a few days ago as well :-), thanks to some articles on the net."
> I am hoping that the fix used for the suggest componenet in the sandbox can be reused to address this issue. I downloaded the latest release candidate RC2 verified that the problem is still present in both the release 1.1.0 and 1.1.1.
> Thanks in advance for you help.
> Marcel
