Dropdownlist showing through Autocomplete in IE 6

Has anyone found a solution for preventing dropdownlists from showing through the Autocomplete dropdown in IE 6?

This is a well documented issue in IE5 and IE6. It was fixed finally fixed in IE7. In short, there is no way to fix it. You must redesign your page so they do not try to use the same area. I don't have the article handy, but it is due tothe fact the DDL is rendered by IE above the page itself.


Here is a link to read further about this:

Thanks, unfortunately I will not be able to redesign the page. I just hope people stop using ie6 real soon
