BackgroundIFrame: applet over underlay

Description (last modified by )
The underlay of dijit.Dialog and dijit.DateTextBox is not working proper with java applets on the FF, Chrome and Opera browsers. The applet component is over the underlay. I think that the problem is in the dijit.BackgroundIframe component and has something to do with the opacity of the underlaywrapper stylesheets. Also there is another point with the dijit.MenuItems on the opera browsers, even the menu items are under the applet on Opera.
To reproduce this defect pls check the test_bgIframe.html.

#9805 fixed a related issue.
I tried test_bgIframe.html on FF3.6/Win7, it looks like it's working OK to me. Showing the dialog grays out the whole screen, including the area where the background iframe is.
Can you attach a screenshot?

Screenshot of DateTextBox? - strange thing is you can only see the highlighted "today"

Tooltips have the same issue. Also, I am unable to load the test on Oracle using the trunk.

OK, so it's not just that "The applet component is over the underlay." but that the applet is over the popup Dialog/tooltip.
It's a bug with sun's java VM and I'm not sure how to workaround it, short of dojo.query("applet").style("visibility", "hidden")
I found http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1230546/javascript-drop-down-menu-and-flash-conflict but that's about flash. And http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do;jsessionid=350dd0219304a1ffffffff970a83b528b2e86?bug_id=6646289 indicates that there's no workaround for this.

The test will also fail on IE6 if you open the calendar drop down before opening the dialog box. After opening the menu first, the dialog box will then show behind either an applet or pdf.

test_bgIframe.html has be automated as robot/BgIframe.html. The test is set to only run for IE7 and newer. Once this defect is fixed, then we need to remove the if statement in general-module.

From my reading it looks like this is a problem specific to applets ignoring z-index, and I'm not sure how to fix it. It needs a fix from the java VM itself.

OK, using the iframe on chrome now works for applets, although it doesn't work for flash, at least in my tests on a Windows XP VM.
On FF the Dialog and DateTextBox are showing fine nowadays, even without any changes to the dojo code. (I.e. I can see them in test_bgIframe.html even on Dojo 1.7.)

Note that the background iframe is no longer needed on the latest versions of Chrome and FF. Still needed on IE8-IE10 though. Not sure about IE11.

According to my tests in a limited scope (dojox/mobile/ComboBox), it is still needed for IE 10.0.9200.16798 on Win 7, but it is not needed for both IE 10.0.9200.16843 on Win 8 and IE 11 on Win 8.1.
By the way...
Chrome v. = 6.0.472.63
FF v. = 3.6.10
Opera v. = 10.62
