CSS table cell locking and drop down box

[manjigani]

Hi all,
I have created a table using CSS/HTML. I fixed the table size so that I could get scroll bars and locked the header row(and few columns too.. to get little excel funtionality). Rest of the rows are to be used for Dataentry, so have input type = text for rest of the rows. But I have few dropdown boxes

Here is the problem. When scrolled, the textboxes scroll nicely and hide under locked cells. But the dropdown boxes, they look as if they are scrolling over locked columns, not underneath. So my purpose of locking the cells is gone.

Does anyone know what the problem might be ? or where I should look for?

I can post the code/pictures, if that helps.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Is this the problem? faq (http://www.webapplikations.com/pages/html_js/forms/CSSMenuSelectBoxWorkAround.html)

Thanks for reply. Yes I think the problem I have is very similar. Whenever I scroll, the <th> tagged cell is being overwritten by the <SELECT> cell.

I think I have to hide my windowed element somehow, when it goes over header.

I will look into the code example in more detial to see how to adapt to my problem.

Again, thanks for pointing me to the page. If you know of any other easier solutions, pl. let me know.
