Calender control overlaps with COmbox box

Post by eshban »

Hello,

I am facong a problem in PHP.

I am attaching a CALENDAR CONTROL with my form. There are some textboxes, comboboxes on form.There are two comboboxes below the calender.

IN INTERNET EXPLORER, when i click on the calender to open it, it will appear behind the combobox, means it is overlapping, i want that when i click on the calender it will open at top level.

Any guidance.

Plz help :cry:

Well this sounds like a client side CSS issue ;)

Try playing with the z-index of the element. Or if it's not meant to overlap at all take a look at the margin and padding settings.

Combo boxes are rendered by the operating system, not the browser. This is why they appear (and almost always will) above other elements. The only fix I've seen/heard is placing the offending combo box in an iframe.

How inconvenient that is.

Can you move the combo box (or the offending element)?
