I am trying to use Joomla Forms with JA-Kyanite ii. When I use the date picker option on my form, the Calendar doesn’t display.

According to the developer:
<blockquote>
It is showing – but behind your white box page inner. You need to check your sites templates CSS file and remove the z-index entries until it works. If you change the the default Joomla template you will see that I’m right.</blockquote>

Before I remove the entries, I was wondering if there was a better fix. :confused:
Also, is z-index used for anything? I don’t want to fix one issue and create some others.

I removed:

z-index: 5

From Line 762
#ja-container {
position: relative;
padding: 10px 0;
z-index: 5;
}
So that it looks like this

#ja-container {
position: relative;
padding: 10px 0;
}

The calendar displays, not sure what side effects this will have.

Thanks,

Evan

Hello,

Removing a z-index is not such a great idea. What I can suggest is that, you open your css file that refers to the calender and give it a higher z-index number. For example, in your case of the ja-container has z-index file, then give the form a z-index of 20. And dont forget to put in the position piece as well. Both of them go hand in hand.

FORM{
z-index:20;
position: relative;
… other css;
}

Regards.
