Harri,

Understood; I was not aware of that issue. We are using a YUI modal
dialog for this, and it looks the YUI modal dialog works properly in
YUI 2.8.0 (see:
http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/container/panel-loading.html).
So I think you have a few choices:

* Adding a meta tag to tell IE8 to run in IE7 compatibility mode,
until this is resolved.
* Find how this was fixed in YUI, and override the existing YUI 2.6.0
style by what they have in YUI 2.8.0.
* Upgrade the current YUI 2.6.0 to 2.8.0 in Orbeon. This is not done
in 5 minutes, but does not require a PhD either. See:
http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/contributor-guide/yahoo-ui-library-yui

In the meantime, I also created a bug to track this:
http://forge.ow2.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=314783&group_id=168&atid=350207

You'll let us know if you get a chance to make some progress on this.
