Hi,

Just tried the textbox sample from HOL and realized if we have a HTML SELECT element under the auto-completed result list, the SELECT element will show through it.

I know this is a browser issue but as there are several AJAX toolkits around these days, do you expect to have a solution for this problem by RTM time?

Thank you,

Yes, you're absolutely right. That's a very well known problem on IE browsers. It's something we already had to deal with in the ASP.NET 2.0 menu control but that we didn't have time to fix in the PDC Atlas build. Here's a blog post explaining how it was fixed in ASP.NET 2.0:

We're probably going to apply the same fix in a future build of Atlas right in the popup control.

The same fix will cover flash and other active content, in IE, however in firefox if there is movment, on your active content it will redraw the active content over the covered area untill you cause the document to redraw.  ie: alt - tabing back and forth.

can anyone say annoying :)

Just a heads up.

I'm not sure I understand thar: Firefox does not need this fix as it already covers selects and other similar contents.
