Dropdown Menu again - why is this happening?

Hi All,

I've nearly cracked it!

I've got the menu to appear as I want it however there was too much space between the menu and the top of the content. To fix this I put the content in a css box and set the position to 'relative' with top: -50px.

This has the desired effect of moving the content up but I can't select any menu item that drops below the top of the content!

Please look at: http://www.aurabeauty.co.uk/index.php and let me know what you think

Thanks

Mouse

in IE 6.0 there is absolutely no problem to use your site, but your content is still far away from the menu, which I thought was really good looking!

I like everything exept the right grey box.

Thanks Brans.

I'm also using IE 6.0 and what is happening is any menu item which is below the top of 'Aura Home' eg the 'Newsletter' item of the 'About Aura' menu can't be selected before the menu disappears.

Thanks for the feedback (the grey box is temporary)

hmm I think this is logic because the list is the top element, and all others are just below it. I really don't see the problem with this, could you tell me ?

Brans - I think we are seeing different things.

Problem solved!

It was a problem with the z-index of the #nav element relative to the content. Go figure!

Thanks anyway
