Details

Dynamically appended elements into an iframe are having their z-index from the parent document not the iframe's. The question is if I add an element into an iframe dynamically, they should be contained in that iframe obeying its z-index. Am I right? because my tests show that all the elements drawn into an iframe dynamically do not obey the z-index rules of CCS. This happenes while rendering the iframe. For example, there are two iframes, the second one is covering most of the first iframe's content area with a higher z-index. If I draw dynamically a table covering the entire body of the first iframe, first iframe raises itself or sounds like it is raising itself while drawing the table. It must be a rendering problem. DOM doesnt take z-index account while rendering the new element into an iframe dynamically.

I will attach a test case tonight.
Correction, it is not for dynamically added elements only. Below the given code demonstrates the bug. <html> <body> <iframe src="http://www.yahoo.com/" height=200 width=200 style="position:absolute;top:100;left:100;z-index:20"></iframe> <iframe src="http://www.yahoo.com/" height=200 width=200 style="position:absolute;top:150;left:150;z-index:10"></iframe> </body> </html>

This bug has been marked "future" because the original netscape engineer working on this is over-burdened. If you feel this is an error, that you or another known resource will be working on this bug,or if it blocks your work in some way -- please attach your concern to the bug for reconsideration.
Pollmann, I'm not sure this one belongs to you but it looks like a iframe frame (i.e. nsFrameFrame) layout problem. Could you have a look?

Is this a duplicate of 43410? This is severely impacting our product development (we need layered iframes that obey z-index properties). Can someone have a look at it?
Patrick, I think you're right - that looks like a dup to me. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 43410 ***
