That is a known issue with ie6 - select and z-index
you can query google for "ie select z-index" and get tons of
suggestions for how to fix it
one good one is http://www.hedgerwow.com/360/bugs/css-select-free.html
it gives you CSS styles to add to the page - and then a <div> to place
all your content in - including your form and select (combo boxes).
that will keep the select from staying on top of other divs that open.
good luck

Hi,<div>
</div><div>I faced the same and a host of other issues while using the jQuery datepicker in IE6. For example, if my IE6 browser has a setting to check for every visit to the page, the popup would take 2 seconds to load.</div>
<div>
</div><div>Ultimately, incorporating the advice found on the net, I reworked and used the jQuery date picker in a slightly different manner to circumvent the various issues and have consistency across the browsers. </div>
<div>
</div><div>You can look at it, download the sample code to see if it is useful for you too.</div><div>

We'll be fixing this in 1.8 by use of the new stackfix plugin, based on the bgiframe plugin (which is bundled in the 1.7 version):
