He everyone,

Ive had this problem whichs has been bugging me for ages, but i have always let it slide.

When i use popup menus and have a form on the page the select box is always displays above my popup menu which recks the popup.

How can i set the select box to be displayed below the popup menu?

Thanks in advance

Tim

Hi Tim,

This problem is caused by the fact that the drop-down is a Windowed control and manages its own z-index. So, even if the z-index of the drop-down is lower than that of the menu, you would still see the drop-down.
Sites like Yahoo Mail worked around this issue by hiding the drop-downs when the menu is open.
A completely different approach can be found here: http://dotnetjunkies.com/WebLog/jkin...07/21/488.aspx
Basically, it inserts an iframe in the page between the menu and the drop-down.

Cheers,

Imar

While typing this post, I was listening to: Venus by Air (Track 1 from the album: Talkie Walkie) What's This?

I would go with the Yahoo! method. It could be as easy as adding one line of code to your popup menu functions (if they're written with JavaScript):

document.forms.form_name.select_name.display='none ';

document.forms.form_name.select_name.style.display='none';

Also, it's not the name of the form/select you want, it's the ID.
