[SOLVED] Hidden JQuery suckerfish.

[trq]

Alright, first up, Im not at all a designer. I paid a designer to do most of this site for me but now Im trying to impliment the menu and Im a little stuck.

 

Im using a jQuery implimentation of the suckerfish dropdowns. The problem appears to be however that the dropdowns are falling behind another layer and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get them to show above the main conent.

 

The site is previewable here http://thorpesystems.com:8080

 

This here is the relevent css.

 

/* MAIN MENU --------------------------------------------------------------------------- */

#menu {
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        float: right;
        border-right: 1px solid #fff;
}

#menu li {
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        list-style: none;
        float: left;
        display: block;
        border-left: 1px solid #fff;
}

#menu li a {
        display: block;
        padding: 0 8px 0 8px;
        height: 38px;
        line-height: 38px;
        background: url(../images/arrow.gif) bottom right no-repeat;
        color: #fff;
        text-decoration: none;
}

/* Navigation */

.nav, .nav ul { 
    list-style: none;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}

.nav {
  font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
  z-index: 100;
  position: relative;
}

.nav li {
  border-left: 1px solid #000;
  float: left;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  position: relative;

.nav li a, .nav li a:link, .nav li a:active, .nav li a:visited {
  font: bold 1.22em/25px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
  background: #565656;
  color: #959595;
  display: block;
  padding: 0 9px;
  text-transform: lowercase;
  text-decoration: none;
}

.nav li a:hover {
  background: #ccc;
  color: #000;
}

#nav-one li:hover a,

#nav-one li.sfHover a {
  background: #ccc;
  color: #000;
}

#nav-one li:hover ul a,

#nav-one li.sfHover ul a {
  background: #565656;
  color: #959595;
}

#nav-one li:hover ul a:hover,

#nav-one li.sfHover ul a:hover {
  background: #ccc;
  color: #000;
}

.nav ul {
  background: #565656;
  border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0;
  width: 100px;
  position: absolute;
  top: -999em;
  left: -1px;
}

.nav li:hover ul,

.nav li.sfHover ul {
  top: 25px;
}

.nav ul li {
  border: 0;
  float: none;
}

.nav ul a {
  border: 1px solid #000;
  border-bottom: 0;
  padding-right: 20px;
  width: 80px;
  white-space: nowrap;
}

.nav ul a:hover {
  background: #ccc;
  color: #000;
}

 

Anyone want to help me out?

Looking at it with either Firefox2 or IE6 on a PC, it's hard to reconcile your problem description with what I see.

I'm looking at it with iceweasel 3.0 (firefox) and the dropdowns are definately hidden below another layer.

Aha! Just found another div #top. Made its overflow visable and whola!

 

Thanks anyways.

FYI, now it works (as expected) with FF2 and IE6
