help needed with quick IE7 CSS z-index problem...

I'm stuck on an ie7 css curiousity...

try typing something in the search box (on ie7) ont eh below page, the z-index doesn't seem to be working like it does for other pop-up type elements on the same page.

I usually try to avoid instance-specific questions like this but it's got me really frustrated!

thanks!

+2 A:

Try putting the div for the floating drag search results box in the context of <body>, right now in ie7 it's nested inside the div with id="search_box".

think something might have been deleted from your answer there, "in the context of : "

Forgot to highlight as code, thanks!

thanks steve this worked perfectly. I then used jquery's offset (http://api.jquery.com/offset/) to then set the position.
