Menu problem - menu items behind the content

Post by iris_saxo »

I'm using version 1.11.13
I started my website with the theme http://themes.cmsmadesimple.org/index.p ... eturnid=15

It's a 2 column page. Everything is working fine but I've a problem with the menu. I've 7 menu topitems. The detail-items of the menu (from 6th and 7th topitem) are disappearing behind column 2.

How can I move the menu foreward so that I can see the detail-items?

Did you change anything in the stylesheets or put some kind of rotating image thing below the menu, a link to the site would most likely get a better answer...

That is one of those Arty crap templates and you have way too many position: absolute/relative calls, I'm surprised any of it works, that whole design can be made with CSS3 and almost no images for corners etc. sorry but no help here, unless you want a template that will work as it should...

First make sure your html validates as much as reasonable. There are some serious errors in it.

After that you can try to search for the cause of the problem.

BTW: I do agree with Dr.CSS that nowadays there are better templates to get what you want.

I found the solution: I had to delete a </div>.

I agree too, now that I understand more of CMS, but I've done a lot of work on it, so I'm a bit afraid to change to a new template.
