This textarea won't display the caret. It works if you don't put overflow:auto in the first div...

<div style="top:100;left:100;width:200;height:200; background-color:black; position:absolute;z-Index:1;overflow:auto;"></div>
   <div style="top:150;left:150;width:100;height:100; background-color:black; position:absolute;z-Index:2;"><textarea   style="width:100%;height:100%;border:0">asd</textareA></div> 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. make a div with overflow:auto
2. make another div on top of it with a text area inside
3. click on text area... no caret




Display the caret normally.

This also happens on text boxes as well as text areas.  If you make overflow:hidden on the underlying layer, the cursor re-appears.
