Jquery UI IE Bug Large ComboBox (Dialog)

[fernando1124]

When i make a dialog with a <div> who has a inside combobox(<select>) with many items, like 1000. it makes the dialog but when you try to dropdown the combo in IE it shows the message:

"a script on this page is causing internet explorer to run slowly"

I have tested IE 6 and IE 8 and the problems persist. In Firefox and Chrome it works fine.

I have tried with other versions of ui and the problem persist.

Here is a link to a test case i did in jsFiddle. ​http://jsfiddle.net/5ckHU/

This is actually a glitch with the resizable that the dialog uses, more deeply it's an issue with the mouse handler and how it decides if you've clicked on the cancel object.

fixed in pull request ​https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/pull/309
