Position problem in IE only; with drop down nav and coda-like slider

[roadjan]

Hi all!

I am using the superfish drop down menu with a coda-like slider. The menu appears as it should in all but IE. In IE (6/7 tested) the menu appears behind the slider, it (obviously..) needs to appear in front, and does so in all other browsers...

Please ask if you need any more info. All code is in dev so please do not critique format for now

Thanks in advance

Hi!

You must attribuate a z-index to each element of:
- your menu,
- your slider,
- their containers.

with these conditions:
- the higher element has the higher z-index, etc.
- the higher element of your menu must have a higher z-index than the higher element of the slider.
- all the z-index of your menu must be higher than the z-index of your slider.

For example:

#wrapper {z-index: 30000;}

div#coda-slider-1, div#coda-nav-1 {z-index: 19; }
div.panel-container, div#coda-nav-1 ul {z-index: 18; }
div.panel, div#coda-nav-1 ul li {z-index: 17}
div.panel-wrapper {z-index: 16; }
div.panel-wrapper h2 {z-index: 15; }

div#menu {z-index: 10000;}
div#menu a {z-index: 9500;}
ul.nav1 {z-index: 9000;}
ul.nav1 a {z-index: 8500;}
ul.nav1 li {z-index: 8000;}
ul.nav1 li a {z-index: 7500;}
ul.nav2 {z-index: 7000;}
ul.nav2 a {z-index: 6500;}
ul.nav2 li {z-index: 6000;}
ul.nav2 li a {z-index: 5500;}

etc.

Good luck!
