Drop down menu not appearing.

Hi Guys,

I'm after a bit of advice.

I've started moving a static template into EE. The address of the static example is: College02

As you can see there is a menu in blue across the top. The items turn green when they are hovered over. If there is a drop down then this drops down in green above the image panel.

Now when I look a this template on my computer (local copy) the drop downs appear on the top of the image. Yet when I upload the template to the server (address above) the drop down menus do not appear. This happens in both the static and the EE version.

Can anyone advise? What am I missing?

Many thanks

Gareth

Is the above link the "broken" one?

Yes, on my laptop if you hover over the 'Academics' menu option there is a drop down menu. ON my laptop I can see the first two then it drops behind the pictures. This doesn't happen on my local copy.

It also happens on the Expression Engine development: Ysgol Gyfun Gwyr (but under the 'General Information' menu option.

I wonder if it's IE9 causing it.

The whole site looks useless in other browsers.

Seems ok with ie9 for me. Firefox and chrome FTW thay also has some brill web dev add-ons.

wipe all your IE cache?

I see what you mean on my desktop , IE is fussy about Z indexing. By default it generates stacks based on elements

Steve

Basically IE resets element stacks when containers aren't joined.

To show easy example:

Put #wrapper in front of the .navigation and #banner CSS

That'll link them so z index works but breaks other stuff

If you could confirm that example works (just for overlapping) will work on it tomorrow to get it properly working
