The problem is that you are not capturing the events yourself in the
controls you have added and preventing their propagation up to their
containers. Events at any level bubble up through the DOM element
hierarchy unless it is explicitly prevented. You are not preventing
this effect and it will simply bubble up naturally and will be picked up
by whatever listener is out there, in this case the key and click events
of the container. So, one way is for you to put listeners for the
events you want to allow in this events and use
YAHOO.util.Event.stopPropagation to prevent the bubbling from reaching
the TreeView or you could place your controls in floating panels outside
of the TreeView hierarchy and have them position and show at the
appropriate places when needed. Being outside of the same DOM branch,
their events cannot bubble into a lateral branch.
