Rails spinoffs - Nov 2007 - draggable with iframeshim for ie6

you all know the problem with select and textbox in ie6 where you need
an iframe under your divs so they will visually be on top.  does
scriptaculous have api for iframeshim like yahoo yui does?

Here''s how we did it in Prototype UI (http://prototype-ui.com/)

var IframeShim = Class.create({

  initialize: function() {
    this.element = new Element(''iframe'', {
      style:
''position:absolute;filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=0);display:none'',
      src: ''javascript:false;''
    });
    $(document.body).insert(this.element);
    return this;
  },

  hide: function() {
    this.element.hide();
    return this;
  },

  positionUnder: function(element) {
    var element = $(element),
         offset = element.cumulativeOffset(),
         dimensions = Object.extend(element.getDimensions(), { zIndex:
element.getStyle(''zIndex'') }),
         position = { left: offsets[0], top: offsets[1] };

    this.element.setStyle(Object.extend(position, dimensions)).show();
    return this;
  }
})


Then this generic class is used in contextmenu, windows or any other
floated element like so:

this.iefix = new IframeShim().positionUnder(''contextMenu'');
...
document.observe(''click'', function(e) {
  if (e.isLeftClick()) {
    this.contextMenu.hide();

    // hides iframe when left click is fired on a document
    this.iefix.hide();
  }
}.bind(this))


best,
kangax
