ASP.NET TABLE + INSIDE A Scrollable DIV, + Table Cell Position:Relative : ModalPopupExtender

I have a asp.net table inside a scrollable div. I have created a matrix table in which the leftmost table cell acts as a fixed column by using CSS Position:relative. Now I have a ModalPopupExtender Over that table. When I am trying to open that on the left most cell (the cell which is relative) by clicking on it, the left cell disappears.

How can I click the cell keepin开发者_StackOverflow社区g it relative?

I sincerely appreciate the help.

First of all, thank you for the interest shown in answering.

I figured out the solution just now. Opened the link and saw your message pasted 8 hours back.

Solution:

1. Add following style to the column

   table.mytable tr td.myfirstfixedcolumn
   {
    position:absolute;
    margin-left:0px;
    min-height:14px;
    min-width:55px;
   }
   

2. Add a Table Cell underneath the fixed column with same dimensions in order to make some space for the remaining columns to appear normally. I called it placeholder and applied the following styles to it

   table.mytable tr th.placeholder
   {  
    margin-top:-1px;
    min-height:14px;
    min-width:55px;
   }
   
   table.mytable tr td.placeholder
   {
    min-width:55px;
   }
