Hi,

A small cosmetic bug exists with IE8: scrollers get activated while the overlay appears onscreen.

This bug does not exist with:
- IE7 / IE8 compatibility mode
- Firefox
- Google Chrome
- Safari

- What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use IE8 (not IE7)
2. Go to http://kammerer.boo.pl/code/prototype-overlay/
3. Clic on any demo

- What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Just like with any other browsers, scrollers are not supposed to get activated while an overlay is displayed in IE8.

- What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows XP/7, IE 8

- Please provide any additional information below.
Identical problem with Prototype 1.7RC3.

I found a workaround: set overflow to 'hidden' on the body tag when the overlay appears, and back to 'auto' when it disappears:

show : function(content, options) {
  document.body.style.overflow = 'hidden'
  ...etc...

hide : function() {
  document.body.style.overflow = 'auto'
  ...etc...

Scroll bars quickly appear and disappear on IE8 when the overlay hides, but this is better than nothing!
