z-index of form in IE7

tullski 28 Jul, 2008
Hi,

im having problems with the z-index of the form.
Seems only with IE.

I changed even in chrontcontact.html.php
<form name="<?php echo "ChronoContact_".$rows[0]->name; ?>" id="<?php echo "ChronoContact_".$rows[0]->name; ?>" method="<?php echo $paramsvalues->formmethod; ?>" action="<?php echo $actionurl; ?>" <?php echo $rows[0]->attformtag; ?> >

to

<form name="<?php echo "ChronoContact_".$rows[0]->name; ?>" method="<?php echo $paramsvalues->formmethod; ?>" action="<?php echo $actionurl; ?>" <?php echo $rows[0]->attformtag; ?> style="z-index:0; position:relative">

Also changed form css in template
form{
z-index:0;
position:relative;
}

tried also absolute, Chronforms always stays on the top layer?

why?

best

Hi tullski,

Did a quick Google and it looks as though that's a feature of IE :-)

PS You don't need to hack the code to add the style to the form tag - just put it in the 'Form tag attachments' box on the General Tab.

Hi tullski,

Yes, IE puts forms in front - nothing to do with ChronoForms, call Microsoft and complain.

Hi tullski,

get Firefox with Firebug and keep editing the css and see if you will get a fix, as Bob said, nothing to do with Chronoforms at all, maybe ask the dropdown menu developer!

Cheers
