In the source of that page I see only one second level menu item 'ADHD', make sure the other items are checked to show in the menu, Options tab when editing/creating page, and don't forget to set the parent for it...

The items are active and the option "show in menu" is checked. The parent is also set.
the parent is a section header.

so i don't know how to get it work...
Maybe there is something wrong in the menu template (.tpl)?

Plz let me know if you've a solution for this!

thnx

things i've tried sofar:

-new menu template
-Place pages under other menuitems

In all menu items only the first item of the next level (dropdown) is showed.
Is possible to hide or disable/block the next items in a dropdown menu?
because i think that this happens now...

What happens if you try the following menu template and call that in the menu:
name: 'extra-menu'

Code: Select all

<ul>
{if $count > 0}
{foreach from=$nodelist item=node}
{if $node->index != 0}
{if $node->type == 'sectionheader'}
<li class="sectionheader">{$node->menutext}</li>
{elseif $node->type == 'separator'}
<li class="separator" style="list-style-type: none;"> <hr /></li>
{else}
<li><a href="{$node->url}"{if $node->target ne ""} target="{$node->target}"{/if}>{$node->menutext}</a>
{$node->titleattribute}</li>
{/if}
{/if}
{/foreach}
{/if}
</ul>
with:

Code: Select all

{menu template='extra-menu'}

What other pages should be listed, have you tried using "re-order pages", with just shifting content around and submitting as that fixes some hierarchical issues sometimes.

I tried the things you mentioned above...but that doesn't work anything out.
The problem is still there...

The menu call is : {menu template='pcsmenu'}


I thought maybe that the menu is "falling" behind the content.
because it doesn't matter where i place the dropdown menu in the menu bar, it always just one item down.

solved!!!

I played around with the z-index.
I've set the z-index of the menu-bar to 2 and the z-index of the content part to 1.
And it works in IE as well in FF  ;D

You need the z-index because you have position:absolute on all the divs, I don't think they are necessary....

Actually you could try this...

#Tabel_01 {
margin: 0px auto;
width:1004px;
}

Can you mark the topic with [solved] then, by modifying the first (original post) subject.
