how do I display a < div > on top of a < SELECT >?

[vilaishima]

I need to know how to display a div on top of a select. I have a page that lists tooltips in a < div > as you hover over the various < SELECT > tags. The problem is that the < div > is always displayed behind the < select >. The z-index also has no effect on this. Any help?

You cant zorder over a select box. The select box is always on top of other objects. Its the only type of input that has this problem. sorry

They build a pretty cool tool to create menus and they came up with a work around for the <Select> problem.

hope helps or at least gives you a tip or two.
