This issue only happened in IE6/7. Hovering on the action button in action bar of a dialog that make inputted values in dialog disappear.Please put the attached testcase in dijit/tests/ to reproduce the issue.

There's no attachment, but I can see a similar problem by modifying the "dialog with no action bars" example in test_Dialog.html to have a <div>hi</div> after the </table>. Just mousing over the fields on IE6 (after typing in any value) causes the text to appear/disappear. Very strange IE6 rendering bug.

My modified test case, "show dialog with no action buttons" text appears disappears based on mouse move over various parts of dialog

Doug, I think we can close this as wontfix if you have a workaround. IIRC you've listed similar workaround in other tickets, like setting position:fixed on the form controls in question?

This is a known issue with IE6 and 7. Just add position:relative to the INPUT fields container, in this case the TABLE element:
<table style="position:relative;">
