Topmenu disappearing behind media content

[nickjelly]

Hi,

 

I've got a bad case of disappearing top menu (mainmenu). Occasionaly when selected the dropdown hides behind the picture slideshow, but that's easily remedied with an F5.

 

However it always goes behind a video window (I'm using AllVideo's jwplayer) and it won't revert to correctly displaying on F5. See screenshot.

 

I've looked around the AllVideo extension documentation to no avail.

 

Anyone know a fix? Is there a way in CSS or HTML to say to the topmenu 'always on top' or 'bring to the front' perhaps?

Ok, so looking a bit further into this it might have something to do with z-indexing.

 

The topmenu has a z-index of 100 in the template.css which means it should always remain on top unless further down the page another element has a z-index of 100 too.

 

The video appears in the welcome page article. If I'm on the right track with this I'm wondering where I find the z-index of front page articles?

May have fixed it. I added position: relative and z-index: 80 to .containerheader in the template.css and now the article (with the video) sits behind the dropdown menu.
