Webmaster Forum / Browsers / Internet Explorer / January 2006

In my ASP page, I have an IFrame that contains only an HTML input text
box and a button.  The IFrame sits in a row in a table.  Here's a
snippet of the code.  This table is also sitting in another table.  The
frame is named frmQuickSearch.  (UGH!  table-based layouts are ugly,
but this is legacy code. Note the text box is in its own iframe because
the browsers have trouble resizing the row when it shrinks if it is
inline as simply a table row - the width of the table is adjustable).
The problem is that the autocomplete box pops up about 5 centimeters
below the bottom border of my text box (which is about 1px above the
border of the frame).  This topic was also posted on another group and
the answer was a link on how to turn off the feature.  I would like to
leave autocomplete on, but control the positioning of the autocomplete
box so it is displayed just below the HTML textbox.

%><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"
height="100%">
<%' Putting the search box as a table within this row caused problems
when the browser tries to
' resize it down in size - Used iframe to get around this problem.
