Can't click search box

versak

I've created several widgets that use datatables where users can have up to 5 on a page. everything works fine (sorting, pagination) but i cannot click inside of the global search (filter) box in firefox 10 (i know; wierd, right?)

i haven't done anything weird in the code, its very simple but on an intranet. any ideas why this might be happening?

it wasn't datatables, but the other jquery ui stuff on the page

jquery sortables interfere with the inputs, but i found a solution here:
http://bugs.jqueryui.com/ticket/4429

[code]
$('#form_fields').sortable();
$('#form_fields input').bind('click.sortable mousedown.sortable',function(ev){
ev.target.focus();
});
[/code]

This is still sort of a problem.

I have to click on the for the text input to become selected. The label tag is wrapped around the which is poor html. I tried changing the datatables code, but I couldn't find the listener or whatever that was waiting for me to click the label.
