Hi,
I was thinking that due to it being such a common problem, I'd like to
suggest adding the iframe hack for IE to the jQuery core.
(To hide <select> elements beneath a positioned element)
The plugin below appends an iframe with the necessary css so that you
don't need any messy hacks in your normal CSS stylesheets.
I've made use of IE's CSS expression() to resize the iframe to match the
parent element - the previous suggestions of 3000px caused select's to
the left or below to disappear.
I've only tested in IE6, will it work in IE 5/5.5?
Is it needed for IE7?
$.fn.iframehack = function() {
if ($.browser.msie)
return this.append('<iframe
style="display:block;position:absolute;top:0;left:0;z-index:-1;filter:mask();width:expression(this.parentNode.offsetWidth);height:expression(this.parentNode.offsetHeight)"/>');
else
return this;
};
