Atlas Drag extender problem. [modified]
-
Hi I am using Atlas control toolkit and found this big problem with Drag panel. I was trying to use the Drag Panel in one of my page which also contains some drop down lists. When I Drag the drag panel on the dropdownlist (I am using IE) I see the dropdownlist above the drag panel. This behaviour is only taking place in IE and not in firefox. I do not know the real reason of this problem but this is making life difficult for me. * Does any one know how to solve this problem? * Can this be solved? I wanted to use this feature in a new site which will be live in a few weeks. http://vikram.qsh.eu/pages/blogdetail.aspx?blog\_id=23 Thanks Vikram -- modified at 7:39 Friday 7th July, 2006

Basically, you're screwed. Atlas uses movable Divs to implement D&D - which exist in "layers". You can force a div to a higher layer by tweaking it's z-index attrib (or z-order, can never remember). This applies to all HTML controls......except that the DDL is implemented not as a HTML ctrl, but as a WINDOW - which always exists in front of everything else. The only way around it would be to hide the ddls and re-instate when dropping, but this looks naff "Now I guess I'll sit back and watch people misinterpret what I just said......"
