Moving all the jqModal windows to be direct children of <body> fixed the IE
problem. I couldn't do that directly with the HTML (long story..) so I just
used $('body').append($('.jqmWindow')) right before doing .jqm()
I'd like to know why having the jqmWindows inside other divs breaks it
though...maybe I'll look into it later

Thanks!

Hi Brice and Benjamin,

Thanks for the replies. I looked at the z-index and it seemed to be fine.
I even manually set it in the css file for
.jqWindow to 3000, but it still didn't work.
The HTML for the windows is indeed nested several levels deep, so I will
try to make them direct children of <body> and
will let you know how that goes.

Thanks!
