When using jQuery with internet explorer 7, i cannot get it to display a popup page, the screen goes grey, the popup is there but not highlighted.

I have not modified any of the code, so i know i have not messed it up anywhere.

When i run the page using safari or mozilla, everything is ok, even ie8 display's the page, but ie7 is giving me a headache.

I have to admit to being a noobie at javascript, but I would like to get this working and move on.

does anyone know if this is an out-standing issue with IE7? and if so is there a fix available.

many thanks

A: 

Can you be more specific? Is the popup a separate window? If so, have you opened it more than once already? Does it have focus? If it's a 'pop*in*', it might be a z-index issue... Can you give more details?

PS - if it is a z-index issue, make sure to use positioning to get z-index to work right with IE. Most times, Position:relative is fine. If you need it to be absolute, make sure you have a parent container that's relative. You probably dont want to use static.
