Split Page widget Virtual Sizer doesn't work on java applet element in IE 6.0

[tomek@…]

I am using Split Page widget in my application and I found problem when using java applet in my application. The Virtual Sizer element is not showing when draging over the applet and, which is most important, it doesn't throwing the onmouseup event when trying to drop it over the applet, I noticed the you already resolved this problem in Dialog widget ( bgIframe field ), using dojo.html.BackgroundIframe? class, could you implement the same solution for the virtual sizers in Split Pane widget class ?

the issue here isn't that we don't have a bgiframe on the slider since the slider isn't what "hears" events during the drag operation. In effect, mousing over the applet causes events that would otherwise be generated to be "snarfed". We might be able to fix this by putting a transparent div over the contents of the panes, but this strikes me as somewhat heavyweight.

fixed (In [7453]) by introducing a div to cover the entire area occupied by a splitcontainer. the div is under the sizer
