Z-index problem

[bhaktik]

I am a UI designer for a product which is based on .NET. I am facing the
following problem: I have a calender pop-up on my page which is visible at a
certain specific position , it is triggered onclick of a button (img). In the
DIV section below I have a textarea, this textarea appears to be on top of the
calender pop-up, hampering its visibility. Actually the calender pop-up should
appear on the top of the text area. Please advice

All Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so to speak,
including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and Active X controls.
This means that each of these will poke through layers. There is not a good
cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue.

I would recommend a redesign to move the form element, or some scheme to
hide it when the other div is displayed.

More ideas...

If you are not using liquid design you can work-around using an image in the
background ordered and positioned to blot out controls underneath. Then
order and position the calendar on top of the image. You may have to use a
wrapper div but that's the way it goes sometimes. I've done this myself to
blot out content and controls that 'bleed through.' If you are using liquid
design you'll have to redesign the layout so you can implement a
work-around, another of which toggles the display property on and off of the
controls you want to avoid bleeding through other positioned UI elements.
