    Hi!

    My wayfinder menu HERE: http://www.typednotes.com/index.php?id=39

    wont allow itself to be absolutely positioned right at the very front layer. Right now, no matter what I can’t get it to drop outside of the static layer at the top of the page.

    Any suggestions?

    Greg.

      because the "framecontent" div has overflow:hidden set to it.

        tried that... it just makes scroll bars appear when you mouseover the menu.

        thanks tho... I figured maybe I could make the menu’s and children absolute layers but it doesn’t make a difference.

          Well, I tried it too with firebug and as soon as I remove the overflow from that div, it works fine.. (in firefox). What browser you use?

            really??? hrmm thats very strange... im get nothing... when i mouse over ’home’ i see only the first 7 or 8 pixels of the drop down tabs.

            I’m checking it in IE 7 and Firefox.

              it worked across the browsers i checked when I took out the overflow tag AND added z-index:100 to the style sheet.

              thanks for the help
