loosing position property of the element affected by the block function

[akousari]

when the block function is called all elements with static postioning whitin the blocked div loose their static property.

Solution:

Add the following line in the unblock function this.style.position = 'static';

You can of course go further and keep a boolean field so if the positioning has not changed (within the block function) then don't set it to static (keep it relative).
