zorder problem with menu and comboboxis also a multiview and panels in the multiview. I cannot get the dropdown part of the menu to show up over the combobox nor the panels in the multiviews. I moved the multiview down away from the menu but I need the ddl, its button, and an infobox under the menu. All combinations of zorder seem to do nothing. If worst comes to worse, I can hide those items that are just under the menu's drop down. Seems like zorder should have worked. I did google and it would appear there is a problem as I read where some people are reordering menus to solve the problem. http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t70574-webcontrol-zorder-problem.html ...thanks in advance.. -- ======================================================================= Beemer Biker joestateson at grandecom dot net http://TipsForTheComputingImpaired.com http://ResearchRiders.org Ask about my 99'R1100RT ======================================================================= A typical solution to this common IE problem would be to place one or more
controls into a separate IFrame, since these appear on top z-order.

I found that if I specify the items (DDL, textbox, etc) under the menu to be "normal to flow" then the menu dropdown shows up over them. The menu style is absolute. If the object is absolute or "offset to flow" then the menu hids behind the object irregardless of z-order. I discovered this inadvertantly by observing it had somehow started working ( i added an object that was "normal to flow" and then when i dragged the object it changed from normal to absolute and I lost the ability to see the dropdown menu. This may not be the same problem that I referenced in the url below. I also discovered inadvertanly that if I accidently set the body itself to "position: absolute;" the menu is positioned slightly (about 10 pixels) below top of the page edge and then the DynamicVerticalOffsets needs to be -10 to make up for the discrepency or the drop down items drop down too far. I think I set the <body style="position: absolute" id="IRDocDemo1"> by accident when the cursor was over the wrong object. Show quoteHide quote > > -- > I hope this helps, > Steve C.
