You better to use DIV instead of table here.
Try this one and see what happens.

There is nothing wrong with your code (in terms of bringing the calendar forward). You're experiencing a bug in IE6. Check in Firefox, Opera or other browsers and you won't see this. In IE6, select dropdowns appear in front of floating divs. There are two possible solutions:

1. Hide the select elements when you display the calendar. This is the easy solution.
2. And the more elegant solution: use the iframe shimming technique. Google it!

In the code which displays the calendar, access the select elements which overlap and set the visibility property to "hidden", e.g.[CODE=javascript]var selObj = document.getEle mentById("selOb jID");
selObj.style.vi sibility = "hidden";[/CODE] Don't forget to display the select elements again when you hide the calendar (set the visibility property to "visible").
