Apparently, if you use Microsoft's gradient filter in a
style definition for the BODY tag and you have a form
with a SELECT tag (DropDownList in the case of aspx) and
the page is scrollable, IE will fail to render the SELECT
tag when the user scrolls up and down the page. To see:
<html>
<head>
<style>
BODY {
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient
(GradientType=0, StartColorStr='#00000000',
EndColorStr='#90000060') }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p style="padding-bottom: 300px;">Top of page</p>
<center>
<form name="Form2" method="post" action="Webform1.aspx"
id="Form2">
<p>Scroll page and watch SELECT tag disappear!</p>
<select><option>Test</option></select>
<p>Scroll page and watch SELECT tag disappear!</p>
</form>
</center>
<p style="padding-top: 1200px;">Bottom of page</p>
</body>
</html>
Does anyone know if this is an acknowledged defect and if
so, whether a fix is in the works?
