Drop down menu behind slideshow

[dianneh]

Hi
I am using a CSS based drop down menu and the Fade-in slideshow (v2.6) on a test site. I cannot seem to get the dropdown menu to go over the slideshow (it is hidden behind). I have tried manipulating the z-index but nothing has worked. Any ideas?

Thanks

You were on the right lines with z-index - you just need to go a little higher.

The slideshow's JavaScript is switching between z-index:999; and z-index:1000; (depending on which slide is active) so make your menu z-index at least 1001 to get it to show over the top.

I would personally play it safe with;

#navigation ul {
	z-index:9999; 
}
