Hi,
I have a tooltip kind of box that popups on hover, but the IE6 windowed control select box overlaps it. So, I have to resort to iframe shimming.
I have an absolutely positioned iframe of exactly same size as select box over it and that below my tooltip. It works as intended. However, I have to have iframe transparent so that the user can see the select underneath it, otherwise it’d be same as hiding the select box. So, I give iframe filter:alpha(opacity=0); while it works, it also makes opacity of the select box beneath the iframe invisible. This works as intended in IE 7 though, but IE7 doesn’t have the select overlap issue so that’s not a consolation - and besides I’ll restrict the fix to IE6 alone thorough conditional statements anyway.
So, could anyone suggest how to make opacity of iframe alone invisible and not anything underlying?
