Internet Explorer 7 z-index designation

I am trying to reset the z-index property of an element. It works everywhere except (surprise!) IE7 or IE8-as-IE7. Can someone point me in the right direction?

test case at jsfiddle.net

Honestly, I do not hope that it works in IE7, maybe someone has ideas for a workaround?

In some context:

This element has a child element and itself is located in the jQuery user interface dialog box. The dialog library disables modifications to any fields with lower zIndexes values. This function, combined with the aforementioned error, means that I cannot edit the field, even if I correctly reset zIndex for the test item.

Thanks for any ideas you can give!

So, IE7 has a weird bug in which you also need to set the z-index of the parent element. Check here

You can also try to zoom in: 1; which sometimes works.
