Error description
Using Rational Software Architect V6011 iFix004 The JSF datepicker window closes automatically in about one seco nd and selects a random value when the datepicker is located nea r the bottom of the browser window. The behavior seems to occur when the popup window is displayed above the accompanying text b ox, rather than below it. This behavior occurs when the application is running on WebSpher e Application Server (WAS) 6.0.2.11 and WAS 6.1.0.2. The issue i s consistent on both the IE 6.0.2900.2180 SP2 and Firefox 1.5 br owsers.
Local fix
Problem summary
Under certain circumstances in tables, IE does not report positional information about tags correctly to JavaScript reading the DOM. This results in JSF components such as date pickers, color pickers mis-behaving as the "popup" windows get badly mispositioned.
Problem conclusion
Some of the cases where IE misbehaves can be trapped and the popup positioning can be forcibly corrected. In other cases, wrapping the tag (e.g., hx:inputText with a date picker) in a fixed-width div will force IE to behave correctly. Fix delivered in Rational Software Architect V7004.
