Hi All,
I recently got a website up and running...however the menu doesn't work properly in some older IE versions.
Everything seems to be fine in FF and the newest IE.
When the dropdown kicks in it hides behind the content. As soon as you want to go to a lower level in the menu it disappears as soon as you leave the "menubar" area.
I tried the following to solve the problem:
-Played around with the z-index
-included the .js to get it work properly
-tried the .png fix.
So far nothing did the trick!
I'm running CMS 1.6.7.
If someone knows where I should look for, or what's wrong (besides using IE) plz let me know!
Any help is much appreciated!
Thnx in advance!

As always most any problem you have to come to this board to get answers for will require a link to offending site, else it is just a matter of guessing and it looks like you've tried most everything one would guess is wrong...

Re: Horizontal dropdown menu doesn't work properly in IE7 and earlier versions of IE
Like a lot of sites that have this problem you have almost everything using position:absolute...
On a site like that one there is absolutely NO reason to use it...
In web sites blocks of content be it headers, menus, content, they will all just stack up on top of each other in the order they are in the template, header first it will go to top and fill the whole width, menu next it will go under the header etc. etc. etc...

Allright...I'll try to change the layout and post a reply if whether it works or not 

Re: Horizontal dropdown menu doesn't work properly in IE7 and earlier versions of IE
Ok...I changed the layout and didn't use the position:absolute stuff.
The menu work in all the browsers...however it's not perfectly aligned
Also the menubar which has a certain backgroundcolor gets "cut-off"...so now it looks like there is something wrong.
I guess this is just a litlle problem in my css somewhere...but where?
Thnx so far! at least it solved the rollover problem

The menuwrapper has a height of 1% either take it out or set it to the actual height you want...
