Help

"IE does not let you float an element in front of a select -- how can I get around that?"

Use an iframe; jquery has an example in they're modal dialog box

    Blah! IE is so aggravating, Microsoft needs to stop acting like a bunch of retards and fix their damn software

    I did a simple test and found no problem. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding, but if the objective is just to show a element on top of a "select" (a.k.a. drop down box) without the select bleeding through the element, then I don't see a problem.

    <%= select_date %>
    my floated div

    Worked fine for me in IE.
