FirefoxTabbar Problem (Fx 2.0.0.9)

Hello,

We have noticed a problem of using your TABBAR API on Firefox (api download on january 2007)

With absolute style, cursor does not appear in a textarea. We have resolved the problem in changing style generation in your source code for FX only , in this method (file dhtmlXTabbar.js) :

dhtmlXTabBar.prototype.setContent=function(id,nodeId){:
...
if(!window.attachEvent ){     
nodeId.style.position="relative";
} else {
nodeId.style.position="absolute";
}

...
However, with this change, some of tabbar don't appear in firefox (about 1 for 6). The panel seems to be at bottom of the window.
When we change the style to absolute it is OK, but we always have cursor problem.

Question :
What about this problem? have you ever heard of this ?

Does your new API correct this problem ?

Thanks a lot for your response

>>What about this problem? have you ever heard of this ?

This is known issue, but it not a problem in component - if you add any input just as part of html ( without styling ) - it will show cursor correctly.

There is bug in rendering engine of FF - the text cursor disappears when the input box is positioned on top the div with overflow:scroll or overfrol:auto
Bug can be corrected by another div around the input box with "overflow:auto" or "overflow:scroll".
