<DIV><SPAN class=237154815-08032005><FONT face=Verdana color=#0000ff size=2>The
answer is that this page has NO <select> boxes whatsoever. You can verify
this fact very easily by searching in the source for the text '<select'. The
dropdown boxes which you are seeing appear to be being generated by
JavaScript. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

overlapping problem<BR><BR></FONT></DIV><FONT face=arial size=2>Hello,
list...<BR><BR> I've discovered something very strange that
may border on OT for this list, but I'm hoping some of the geniuses here will
have an idea.<BR> Observe, if you will, the following page in
IE6:<BR><BR><A
href="http://www.realpopup.it/ELBtest/test.html">http://www.realpopup.it/ELBtest/test.html</A><BR><BR> You
should see a scrollbar that shows about half the content as being off the
screen. Above the scrollbar are some HTML dropdowns, although I can't
account for the whereabouts of their arrow buttons (it's not my page, but it
is my control).<BR><BR> Now the fun begins. Pull down
the list in the "Tipo" column, or the one next to it; just make sure that the
scrollbar is empty below the list you choose. Now hover over one of the
first options and notice how when you are in the scrollbar area, the list
thinks that the bar is still over it. The item does not change color,
and if you click on it in that state, rather than selecting the item, you will
scroll the page.<BR><BR> In short, what the *&#!?
I've tried increasing the z-index (using my powers of URL bar javascript), but
nothing seems to help. I can *reduce* the z-index so that the bar shows
*over* the droplist, but increasing it doesn't convince the page that the list
is on top, even though I can clearly see
it.<BR><BR> Hopefully that made enough sense for you all to
follow; all suggestions and/or questions are
welcome.<BR><BR>TIA,<BR><BR>Peter<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></FONT></BODY></HTML>
