javascript popup calendar problem

[sbettadpur]

hello everybody,


i am using readymade popup calendar for my application, it's working fine.
But i am facing some problem i.e. if i click on the calendar image it will open a calendar. below that i put one drop down select box, so layer of calendar is invisible due to this select box. where as instead of select box, if there is text box calendar is visible. how can i solve this problem.

And also i used z-index property to push the calendar layer. but still its not working
it is going back side of select box.

if anybody knows reply me.

thank you.

Let me guess. This happens in IE6 only?

IE6 has a problem where windowed controls such as select elements appear above non-windowed controls such as divs. To avoid this problem:

1. Either hide the select element when you show the calendar; or

2. use iframe shimming - place an iframe underneath the calendar to allow it to appear on top of the select element.

Thank you very much for your reply.

Your guess is correct, i am facing above said problem with IE 6 only, not in IE 7 and mozilla.

thanks
