work around suggestion: have the textbox in a div and hide it when revealing
your forefront div

Another caret clipping problem. Reassigning to sfraser since I'm not sure if
anthonyd is picking up caret drawing issues too.

My bug 192071 is probably related to this bug.  In my bug, the text is above an
image but the textbox itself appears below the image.
