I downloaded a script from the internet for pop up calendars. Basically, it works fine but when the image pops to a space where there are drop down listboxes, the listboxes seem to be on top of the generated calendar image.

Help please!thanks guys!
 
nothing can be done about that, Select boxes are Windowed controls, u cannot draw anything above it...

But textboxes are windows controls too right?

There have been several posts recently about this - all pointing to the same solution, pretty much (using iframes to hover over listboxes).

Do a search on the threads (and/or Google) and I'm sure you'll find them.

Hope this helps,

Yeah, but textboxes don't ignore the z-index of windowless elements (because *they're* windowless).

IIRC an <iframe> obeys the z-index with windowed and windowless elements so perhaps it's possible to put an <iframe> over the top of a <select>. Can't say that I've tried it though.
 
Thanks a lot guys!
iframe tag works perfectly
 
guess what? i wrote the FAQ for the IFRAME stuff, but since its messy, i discouraged him...
