    Default Suckertree menu, drop downs behind content, 3 column float

    I have created a few suckertree menus on sites and they are working fine, (thanks to info I have found on this forum) but this is the first time I have done so with three columns below the menu.

    I corrected the z-index for the menu and the floating columns below (or atleast think I did.) When I add the left column on to the page the drop down menu items appear behind the content below when rolled-over.

    Is there additional code I need to consider with the three floating columns below the menu?

    Thank you to anyone that can offer insight.

    Here is the link to the page: http://www.liseyinc.com/Test-ibgd.html
    Here is the CSS for the suckertree and the columns.

    body {

    I fixed it on my own.
    Even though the 0 and 1000 z-index settings worked fine for me before, they were not with the three column version.
    I changed the three columns to -1 based on another post I just read and it now works.

    Hope this atleast helps if you are looking for a solution to this problem.
