User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

The setup is that I have two TABLEs that are style="position:absolute"    so
they are resting on top of each other. Inside each TABLE, I have a <tr><td> and
then a SELECT box inside the <td>.       I activate one SELECT and deactivate
the other by using Javascript on the TABLE    style.visibility=visible or hidden 

When I have table1 (arbitrary numbering)  visible and table2 hidden, you can
select options just fine.

When I have table2 visible and table1 hidden, you cannot select options (with
catch).

I played around with it and discovered something else.   Table2 because of the
select options inside is about 50pixels wider than Table1.   When table2 is
visible, if you click on the right side of the option, you can succesfully
select the option.   However if you click on the majority of the option text, it
won't select.   It looked like the cutoff line between succcess and failure was
right at the line where the smaller select box ended.

It doesnt work because there is a hidden table above it.
