The easiest way to solve this problem (with Struts Menu) is to add onmouseover events to menu-config.xml that hide the offending elements.

Hi All,

I'm using Appfuse 2.0 + Struts 2. In my project, I'm using the "standard" horizontal nav menu used by the default AppFuse 2 theme.

I'm having a problem with elements "bleeding through" the dropdown menus and not only is it unsightly, but it causes functional problems because you can't select a drop-down menu item that has an underlying component on top of it.

I've been doing some googling and reading about the problem and I'm aware of issues with "combo" controls appearing on top of everything, but this problem affects other HTML elements as well. For example, I have a button that's an <img> component with an onclick event and this appears on top of a dropdown menu that's supposed to go over the top of it. Another element that causes the same kind of problem is a <th> with a background image (from the stylesheet).

I've seen the problem in both FireFox (current version) and Internet Explorer 6. I've used Firebug to try and examine exactly what's going on with the CSS to cause this, and I've tried playing around with z- indexes, but they don't seem to make any difference.

Unfortunately, my css skills are not really up to diagnosing this problem but I can't believe no-one else has seen the problem and I'm hoping someone who knows their CSS better than I do has already fixed it.

Has anyone else seen this problem?
