Alignment issue in DIV containing Combo

I have created a combo with DIV tag inside "<TD>" element. If the no of items in the combo exceeds 4, dropdown list is misbehaving in Internet Explorer 6.0 SP 1.

But in Firefox it is working fine.

Can anybody help me to solve this issue...

Are you using AW 2.0.2? Can you post a code example which allows to reproduce this issue?

Hi Alex,

First I thak you for your immediate response.

Yes. I am using AW 2.0.2 only. When you open my sample code, u can find one white box around the popup list when u drop down the combo. This is the actual root cause for the alignment issue. Sometimes, only the white box is displayed and the popup items appear outside the screen area. In my actual HTML, there are some more controls below the table in which the combo box is placed.

System Details:

Internet Explorer:
Version : 6.0.2800.1106 (SP1)
Client Strength: 128 bit
Product ID: 55736-579-6588582-04251

Operating System: Microsoft Windows 200 Professional Edition.

This is my sample HTML Code:
