Putting FilteringSelect in a span causes arrow to stop working

[guest]

Wrapping a FilteringSelect? in a span tag causes only the very edges of the arrow "button" to work in FireFox? (2.0.0.9). See attched modified /dijit/tests/form/test_FilteringSelect.html

This seems to be a problem with using -moz-inline-stack for tables. Thus the problem affects many/most of the form widgets. If the parent node is an inline div or a span, then the parent background covers up part of the node - and thus things like arrows don't work since you're actually clicking the parent node.

<div style="display:inline;border:2px solid red;background-color:yellow;">
<table style="display:-moz-inline-stack;border:2px solid black;">
<tr><td>this should be completely visible</td></tr>
</table>
</div>

It's interesting that if the parent node is an inline fieldset, then it works perfectly.

<fieldset style="display:inline;border:2px solid red;background-color:yellow;">
<table style="display:-moz-inline-stack;border:2px solid black;">
<tr><td>this should be completely visible</td></tr>
</table>
</fieldset>

So, the solution seems to be either to document that if you must include a form widget inside an inline element, that you should use <fieldset>, or else we could include the fieldset as part of the template, adding an additional node for each widget whether or not they have inline parents.

Adding position:relative to dijitInlineTable seems to fix the problem magically.

But inline parent styling still isn't going to work unless a fieldset is used.

(In [11465]) Fixes #5042, #5034 in 1.1. The previous opacity change was good, but the ComboBox? template needed the tabIndex=-1 removed and the tundra style fixed. Added position:relative to dijitInlineBox. Removed hardcoded style from Spinner.html and ComboBox?.html templates. Changed ComboBox? to popup on mousedown over arrow and select item on mouseup to match native select.
