Thread: Stock flyout drop-down menus from top nav bar hidden behind homeintro using FireFox or Chrome

I have a live site (www.coinvalparts.com) using the final version 8. I have a flash slide show at the top of my "homeintro" topic. I have a jQuery slideshow in a localhost for version 9.3. Both look and work fine using IE 8 or 9. When viewing the live site using Chrome, the drop-down menus are hidden behind the flash. Firefox is ok with the flash, but does the same thing (hides the drop-down behind the slide) on my localhost jquery slide show. IE 8- 9 look fine. Any help tweaking this would be great. I do not have a bunch of custization, just made a topic the called the jquery slide show. AspDotNetStoreFront sells one as an add-on also. I just cannot figure why one browser puts the drop-downs on top, and the other puts the slide on top of the menu???
Thanks

Your live site appears to be working fine in Chrome, Firefox, IE and Safari with respect to the issue you described.

If you are experiencing the issue on your local staging site, the cause can be a number of reasons, including incorrect HTML or CSS formatting. If your HTML looks fine, I suggest having a look at the CSS zindex property. W3Schools provides a nice overview: http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_pos_z-index.asp

Note: I noticed that your HTML does not include a DOCTYPE, which can potentially make it harder to keep your site rendering consistently across different browsers, since it can trigger quirks mode.

Thank you very much for the input. I was able to tweak the z-index values and it works great. I will look into the DOCTYPE, as it is a stock store and should be there....Thanks again

Great - Glad that worked out for you!
