Dropdown lists themselves are windows in IE browser and they have the
highest Z index. You can not show anything on top of them. Try to use
a popup window without toolbars etc.

Thanks

I can help you by being the messenger of bad news. There is no way to bring
an html element in front of a drop down list. Certain windows controls
always live above html block/inline elements. I use dhtml menu navigation
that overlaps with specific page drop downs and the best solution I have
found is to hide the offending controls when appropriate. The javascript I
usually use is...

// specific page javascript
var ddl = document.getElementById("ddlBadWindowsDropDown");
if ( ddl );
controlsToHide[0] = ddl;

// linked dhtml library...
var controlsToHide = new Array():
// time of hiding
for ( int i = 0; controlsToHide.length; i++ )
controlsToHide[i].style.display = "none";
// time of showing
for ( int i = 0; controlsToHide.length; i++ )
controlsToHide[i].style.display = "inline"; // or "block" as appropriate
