1) Script Title: Chrome CSS Drop Down Menu (v2.01)

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/chrome/index.htm

3) Describe problem: Ive had experience in web design etc from a few years ago, but never attempted anything using CSS. Ive been trying to put together a website for a local church, and after coming up with a layout I was happy with, I then tried to find a CSS template I could use as a basis for the site so i could learn from it (maybe that was my first mistake.. hehe). I'm 90% happy with how it looks now, and the majority of it works in all the browsers I can test it in - the only thing I cant get to work is the Chrome Menu bit. It works fine in FF, but in IE the drop down menus disappear and become unclickable. I'm pretty much stuck for ideas now. I've tried stripping the CSS down of everything as much as I possibly can to try and eliminate any problems, but I don't want to do that too much until I fully understand whats going on!

The address where the site is currently is: http://dev.honitoncommunitychurch.org

I'd grateful for any help! :D

Inside chromestyle.css, you need to give the .dropmenudiv a z-index value that's a large integer, for example:


.dropmenudiv{
position:absolute;
top: 0;
border: 1px solid #BBB; /*THEME CHANGE HERE*/
border-bottom-width: 0;
font:normal 12px Verdana;
line-height:18px;
z-index:1000;
"
"

Hi - thanks for the reply..

I do know that the credit doesnt appear in there at the moment - I had taken everything that wasnt part of the actual code out as a last resort to try and narrow down anything that could be affecting the code - but it will be back in there as soon as the site goes live..

I'll have a look at that bit of code and report back..

Thanks for your help! :)
