In IE the child menus appear under the next menu. I have messed around with Z-Index and position:relative

You can see the site at http://ptm.transitid.com/

Any thoughts?

You'll want decreasing z-indexes on the <li> containing each of the top level menu items, that should improve things.

Also, are you considering a credit link to twinhelix.com anywhere? I realise it's in development but just thought I'd check!

Cheers - Angus.

Forgive my ignorance but I don't know where to do this. I tried but no luck.. Which means I am doing it in the wrong place.

Can you give me an example of what should change.

Yes I will make sure we include credit and I have been told we have donated in the past.

Ah cool, thought I remembered you name :). That's fine!

Try this, basically:

<li style="z-index: 5"> ...submenus...</li>
<li style="z-index: 4"> ...submenus...</li>
<li style="z-index: 3"> ...submenus...</li>
...

Angus,

I am considering making a donation if I can get this to work: http://www.designadvertising.net/qe/order-info.cfm
If you mouse over Register for Quilt Expo, the last child is not lined up in firefox and safari. In explorer the children are off to the left. What do I have wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help.

The page isn't working at all at the moment, you're missing both the script activation and the fallback CSS menu!

Try not to click "Repost" on "Refresh" :). The page seems to be OK in FFx2 and IE6 at the moment for me? Items all aligned? So I guess you have fixed it?

- Angus.
