Hello,

I am using the Slide Menu in combination with Custom Items to hide/show parts of the screen. In the custom item is a DIV and a Section which contains things like textboxes, datepickers dropdown etc.

The issue is when i right-click on a Textbox i no longer get the IE/FireFox right-click menus to copy & paste i am forced to use keyboad shortcuts is there a way to fix this?

Hi,

You can try to set the CustomItems' CancelBubble to false.

Thanks

This appears to only be happening in FF3.5 and also the DatePicker inside a CustomItem doesnt work as you click to edit the date and it reverts to like the beginning of the textbox. I have tried this in IE& and both the right-click and Datepicker work fine. Can you test this an confirm this bug in the new Firefox?

Hi,

This is a well know FireFox quirks. Try to enclose the DatePicker inside a DIV with style="position:fixed" and see if it works:

Code: HTML/ASPX
<eo:CustomItem ....>
    <div style="position:fixed">
       <eo:DatePicker ....>
       </eo:DatePicker>
    </div>
</eo:CustomItem>


Thanks!

This works however is cause the Datepicker to start covering up what is below it. As i am useing a Table with Rows & Cells to dispplay info. Is there another way around this or do i need to make the row height bigger?

Only when the Calendar pops open. And when i scroll down the page it stays there. I mean the WHOLE textbox etc starts to cover up the data below it.

Yes. That would be an issue. Unfortunately we are not aware of any reliable workaround. The problem rooted to an old FireFox bug, which was marked as "fixed" as to version 3 but it still shows up in different variations. So you may want adjust your page design to avoid this scenario (for example, set the DatePicker's DisabledTextBox to true so that user will only be able to pick a date but not entering it; or simply move the DatePicker out). Sorry about that!
