Hi Adam:
To reproduce what I am saying we need the following. Design a simple page in html and have an iframe. In the iframe load an existing page that has cuteEditor in it and set height width of the page to be 100%. Now try using color picker you will notice that the color picker is not on top of the iframe but actually below it.
Hope that is clear now. Let me know in case you have any more qns..
Thanks n Regards,
Don P.
