Jquery date picker z-index issue

Put the following style at the 'input' text element: position: relative; z-index: 100000;.

The datepicker div takes the z-index from the input, but this works only if the position is relative.

Using this way you don't have to modify any javascript from jQuery UI.

simply in your css use '.ui-datepicker{ z-index: 9999 !important;}' Here 9999 can be replaced to whatever layer value you want your datepicker available. Neither any code is to be commented nor adding 'position:relative;' css on input elements. Because increasing the z-index of input elements will have effect on all input type buttons, which may not be needed for some cases.
