Hi Dani Web Community,

I'm having trouble with the spry menu bar in CS3. My first problem is occuring in Safari, Firefox, Opera and IE. There is a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the page and if you scroll to the right there is a secondary sub menu appearing. As far as the actual Menu and Submenus those function correctly.

The second problem is only occurring in IE. The submenus on the home page are dropping down behind the flash element. Can this be fixed with out having to drop the flash into an iframe on a separate page?

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

Here is the CSS for the spry bar:

/*******************************************************************************

 BROWSER HACKS: the hacks below should not be changed unless you are an expert

/* HACK FOR IE: to make sure the sub menus show above form controls, we underlay each submenu with an iframe */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal iframe
{
	position: absolute;
	z-index: 1010;
	filter:alpha(opacity:0.1);
}
/* HACK FOR IE: to stabilize appearance of menu items; the slash in float is to keep IE 5.0 from parsing */
@media screen, projection
{
	ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
	{
		display: inline;
		f\loat: left;
		background: #FFF;
	}
}

I finally found information on the drop down menu and the flash. So that is fixed but I'm still in the market for information pertaining to the secondary submenu on the far right side of the page.

Thanks!!
