[WSG] z-index problem with dropdown menu
http://www.tyssendesign.com.au/sites/evolved/sax/ I can't figure out why the dropdowns fall behind the content below them. Can anybody see what I'm obviously missing? :?

I can see this but I'm not sure if you're obviously missing it or not: http://www.saxleather.com.au/index.php?page=homesubrange=nipple%20clamps but I can also see that it's a site that not everyone on the list may appreciate ;) -- Chris Knowles *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

Hi John, I'd have a look at setting a z-index on #sidebar2 (I don't think you have one). Because it comes after the dropdown in the source some browsers may assume it should have a higher z-index than the dropdown so it may help to set it lower. -- Chris Knowles *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

I've z-indexed just about everything on the page to no avail so far.

Hi John,
It's a stacking context issue [1], so increasing the z-index value of the
dropdown won't change anything.
Add this to your #header{} rule:
z-index:1
[1]

Right, well obviously I hadn't. I could've sworn I'd done that for #header
as well. Oh well, thanks for the extra sets of eyes guys! :)
