Issue with flash form

Hello All,

I was searching around the net, and have come across many people that have the same issue I have with the dateField type in the flash forms. For some reason, my date picker keeps overlapping other controls, and cannot be positioned using CSS Styles. Here is what I have. Am I doing something wrong that I'm just not seeing? Many thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    What happens when you remove the "style" attribute definition from your <cfinput type="datefield"> tag?...

    Same thing. Nothing. Is there anyway to position the calendar control, have it pop-up below the text box?

    Still nothing using the inicatorGap style or even putting the whole form in a hBox and adding styles that way. The dateField control keeps popping up beside the textbox, and keeps getting cut off at the top where the month selector is. Is there any way around this? Any way to position it or something? I'm trying but I get no love from CF.

    Many thanks for helping.

    Unfortunately, that didn't help. And, I'm also using FireFox. Anything else, I'm kinda reaching the end of my rope. I used cfformitem spacers, but it just made the form look wired, especially when there was a huge gap in between the dropdown and the dateField.

    Hi,

    This is an IE specific bug.. You may not able to get around this!..

    May be you can try setting the "indicatorgap" style attribute in your <cfinput> tag and see what happens..

    Try like this,

    <cfinput type="datefield" name="mydate" style="indicatorGap:25;">
