CSSMenu is hidden behind a slideshow javascipt [solved]

Post by mattpitts74 »

I am running the most up to date version of CMSMS, I have been testing out adding a slideshow javascript to a template using the literal tags. 

The slideshow works fine, but now I have noticed that my horizontal CSSMenu gets hidden behind the slideshow images, is there anything I can do to stop this happening??

I have searched the forums and also google, but don't seem to be able to find an answer to this question. 

I would really appreciate some help and suggestions.

This coulld be caused by CSS for your slideshow, there is position:absolute somewhere i belive.

I have tried the abolute positioning without any luck. 

here is the url http://www.khwp.org.uk

Any more suggestions would be helpful, I have also tried installing the simple slide module, which does not seem to install without crashing the cmsms backend, so I had to go in and manually delete the folder from the module folder.

Sorry, thought it was a flash object.

Add a higher z-index to your menu nav:

#primary-nav li li {
  width: 200px;
  z-index: 100;
}
