    Description

      Hi,

      on moodle.fhnw.ch, we noticed that the dateselector could appear in wrong places (like: always at the top of the page).

      While this is probably a CSS-YUI interaction bug, we noticed:

      1. the definition of constraints in lib/form/yui/dateselector/dateselector.js is incoherent:
        • on line 118, the M.form.dateselector is constrained to the 'form' ancestor
        • on line 248, the panel is then re-constrained to the 'body' ancestor.
          This was addressed in MDL-32297 but apparently partly so.
      2. we could restore a sane behaviour by dropping the dateselector constrains completely.

      The patch to do the latter as well as a screenshot of the problem are attached.
