The dialog, when modal, prevents focus from being transfered to an element in the document.body.
So, if I have a datepicker, or another component that adds an absolute DOM element to the document body it cannot be focused. In Safari, I can't change select values or anything else. Suggested fix: For the modal code, if the item is acted upon, is not in the dialog **and the z-index of the item is less than the dialog** then block it. This way, any item with a z-index greater than the dialog can still get focus (like a SELECT element in the date picker). Is there another work around? I'm trying to make my own widget using a similar method (absolute DIV in the body with a high z-index that helps the user enter an input value), but the modal dialog is stopping me from getting focus events on my form elements in my DIV). I could always launch a sub-dialog, but I'd rather just hover my DIV under the input as that is easier for my users. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery UI" group.
