I'm trying to duplicate functionality found in a Windows application
at one of my clients. Essentially, another programmer was able to
arrange a lot of search options into a single dialog box by positioning
the descriptive label behind the textbox instead of beside it. When
the user enters text, the label disappears and the user types in their
information into the textbox.
I've figured out how to arrange a label behind the textbox (yes, the
label format has to be altered to differentiate), but events are not
being captured. I can't type into the textbox, and it doesn't even
recognize click events. I've narrowed this problem down to the
"background-color:transparent" since changing 'transparent' to
'white' captures the events.
Here's my code.
---------------------------
<label style="position:absolute;left=100;top:100;z-index:1;">Test
label</label>
<input type="text"
style="position:absolute;left:100;top:100;z-index:2;background-color:transparent;"
/>
--------------------------
If anybody could enlighten me as to what the problem might be, it would
be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
John
