It is a known bug of IE7. Doesnt work in IE7 and IE8(compatibility view). Work around for this is: You need to check the hierarchy. Both pop-up and should be in the same stacking context/or you can say must have parent child relationship. and keep the parent/popup as relative and the z-index should be greater than the child.

you can also check the following link from where i got its example

You ll need to set the popup position as relative, IE reads z-index only when its position is set to relative, just give it a try
