My CSS menu goes under a form drop down menu in IE

Hi,

For some reason in IE, my css menu goes below one of the drop down menu for my form.  It works just fine in other browsers of course.  I was not sure if there was any simple fix to it or not. 

Thanks,
Josh

if it's IE6 try checking that form causing problems does not have "position:relative" on it. Having position:relative on some items usually seems to cause all weird problems in IE6 with other absolutely positioned items on top of it.

The menu was the only one that had a position relative on it.  The form does not.  I removed the position for the menu to test, but all it did was make the menu go to the left of the screen.  Any other ideas?  This is the page : http://aane.org/calendar/

Thanks,

You would need to edit the iehover-fix.js file and the CSS code to comply with the class names in the CSSMenu.js included with CMSMS.

o, this is not on a CMSMS at the moment.  Just plain HTML

I checked with IE6 and for me it does not get behind form on calendar. Dropdown menu has some js problems and behaves pretty funky. Has kind of "blink" effect ;) when you hover over items.

when did you check it?  I just moved the select fields around where the menu goes for a temporary fix.

The blinking affect, so its not just my computer ^_^

Thanks,

Try removing the hover fix script, as you don't really need it now.

If i removed that, would it most likely fix it?

I just moved the drop down out of the way as a quick fix.  thanks for everyones help.

Thanks,
Josh

You might want to run it thru a validator...
