Autocomplete list not aligned properly under selectInputText

I have a selectInputText in my jsf <ice:panelPopup page which gets invoked upon clicking a button.

Issue I am facing is selectInputText has autocomplete list and the list is getting displayed in the right bottom corner of my jsf page. How can I make the autocomplete list displayed just below the selectInputText. Below is the screenshot of my selectInputText You can see my list getting appeared in the right bottom corner, I have greyed out the list values though.

Regards

Code in my jspx 

<h:panelGrid id="popupBody2" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" column="1">
                <ice:form id="frm">                                        
                 <tr>
<td>
                        <h:outputText value="Select City" />                        
                          <ice:selectInputText rows="10" width="300"
                        listVar="city"
                        valueChangeListener="#{bean.method}"
                        listValue="#{bean.list}">
                         <f:facet name="selectInputText">
                   <ice:panelGrid columns="3" columnClasses="cityCol">
                         <ice:outputText value="#city.state}"/>                           
                   </ice:panelGrid>
  </f:facet>
          </ice:selectInputText>           
                    <ice:panelGrid columns="2">                        
                        <ice:outputText id="country" 
                                      visible="false"  value="#{bean.currentCity.country}"/>                       
                    </ice:panelGrid>

    but I found that it will just work for the ie7 so I slightly changed the code to work in ie7,8,9. Here is my code 

    if (Prototype.Browser.IE || navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE 8") > -1) {
                                       var savedPos = element.style.position;
                                       element.style.position = "relative";
                                       update.style.left = element.offsetLeft + "px";
                                       update.style.top = (element.offsetTop + element.offsetHeight) + "px";
                                       element.style.position = savedPos;
                                   }
