Dialog: Don't change z-index when already at the top

[Jörn Zaefferer]

To reproduce the issue, open tests/visual/compound/datepicker_dialog.html

Then click on the input (datepicker opens) and click on it again (dialog moves in front of datepicker), it shouldn't.

it seems "modal" dialog does not move in front of datepicker.

jQuery UI 1.8.1 Uncompressed Version.
jquery.ui.dialog.js
line 80(dialog _create)

.mousedown(function(event) {
	self.moveToTop(false, event);
}),

Test code:(for tests/visual/compound/datepicker_dialog.html)

$('#datepicker').mousedown(function () { return false; });

seems to prevent dialog moving in front of datepicker. (press tab key to focus #datepicker.)

I don't know how to find the dialog is already at the top.

Test code:(jquery.ui.dialog.js, line 254, dialog moveToTop)

if (self.uiDialog.css('z-index') != $.ui.dialog.maxZ) { //<-append
	if (self.overlay) {
		$.ui.dialog.maxZ += 1;
		self.overlay.$el.css('z-index', $.ui.dialog.overlay.maxZ = $.ui.dialog.maxZ);
	}

	//Save and then restore scroll since Opera 9.5+ resets when parent z-Index is changed.
	//  http://ui.jquery.com/bugs/ticket/3193
	saveScroll = { scrollTop: self.element.attr('scrollTop'), scrollLeft: self.element.attr('scrollLeft') };
	$.ui.dialog.maxZ += 1;
	self.uiDialog.css('z-index', $.ui.dialog.maxZ);
	self.element.attr(saveScroll);
} //<-append

may work.
