Hello Guys,

I have been trying to bring my drop down navigation on top of all the object lying on the webpage. However in IE6 select object always comes above my dropdown.
Did anyone encountered such kind of issue, do you have any answer to this kind of bug.

Thanks
Rajesh

It’s been a while but may help somebody….

All you need to do is prior to the revealing of the dropdown element absolutely position an iframe, styled transparent & to the dimensions of the subsequent menu, also ensuring that the z-index order of the elements are correct, eg form : 1, iframe : 2, menu ul : 3. There are plenty of lightweight javascript libraries that go a long way to automating this so reducing your coding of browser specific tweaks. Search suckerfish, superfish drop down menus for example

You might want to look in to using the z-index. The problem with such things is usually how browsers display the webpage. I sae some good info on CSSPLAY.co.uk on this you might want to check that out.

Good Luck

I have the same problem with my blog site, that’s why i just removed the drop down menu. I will be trying if these tips will work for my design. As for now, the simple nav bar will do.

I have used an example from one of those javascript menu sites tested in IE and firefox then modified it for my site.. It saves alot of time over trying to get the right code for IE and firefox

It is a IE6 bug, not a CCK module bug. IE6 renders the input selects at top of any web element ignoring the CSS z-index property. The only solution avaiable is to hide the ‘select’ elements with Javascript when the drop-down is showing and enable it after selecting the option in the drop-down.
You can also add an iframe below the dropdown… as iframes and flash lay over the select. Nevertheless - this is a IE6 bug for sure.

You could try the z-index, but this most likely an issue with the object tag. Try to make it transparent by adding
<param name=”wmode” value=”transparent”>
