Hi,
I've recently aquired the Obout Controls toolkit (obout.com), and is currently adding functions from it in my solutions.
Today I tried to add a small dialog to show information about a place the user clicks on the map.
Clicking in the map fires the Map.Click event, and in its handler sub I populate and open an Obout dialog with the information.
However, this dialog shows only briefly, and then the map renders on top of it, hiding it from view.
I've made a small screen movie (SWF) showing the problem. It can be seen here.
In it, I click in the center (mouse cursor), the page reloads, the dialog appears briefly, and then it's gone, painted over by the map tiles. The surrounding page is dimmed, which is a feature of the Obout dialog when in "modal" mode.
What can be done to remedy this ? Will this need to be solved in Obout or MapSuite or OpenLayers ? Or as I fear, a combination of the three ? Why is Map Suite rendering on top of my dialog ??
