CSS menu disappear behind content block

Post by realrock »

Hi, I am trying to install I the CSS menu template (horizontal) to my site, it works, but the second levels disappear behind my content block. Maybe its really simple but I can't find a way out :)

Any ideas? Thanks,
Peter

Oh boy a mix of div and table layout, and again overuse of position:absolute/relative instead of margin/padding...

Alright so the solution would be to use only DIV posisioning.

Thanks, I'm gonna work on replacing them.

I would start with 2 boxes, left (float:left ) and right (right margin 5px more than the width of the left box), put the large left image in left and header, menu, content in right box...

You could start with the Default CSS Menu horiz. template and put the left div right after pagewrapper...

Like this...

Crud. I've got the same thing going on. I built the layout, and now as I add the horiz. menu, it's hiding. No tables... all div. But a few spots that have relative positioning. Any thoughts on a quick fix? View Page

I could rebuild, but deadline is coming quickly (sample today, full site by Friday). I'm hoping there's an intermediate solution. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff
Mmmmm... Tasty.

Temporarily solved... I moved the menu into one of the divs and it's working for now.

EDIT: I'm changing the layout so it works properly. It will be a mess for a short while, but back online by mid-day. Thanks!
