I'm currently trying out this script from
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/topmen3/index.htm .

Problem is, looks great on windows, but when viewed on mac ie, the drop down goes under tables and pictures. How do i make it go over tables and pictures like on windows?

Put it in a
and give it a high z-index value (99 should do it).

Alright, in custom.js, there's this:

var zORDER = 100; // base z-order of nav structure (not ns4)

Is that what your talking about? It's already high or should it be 99?

Well, to be honest with you, I haven't actually looked at the script myself yet. But the z-index I'm talking about refers to Cascading Style Sheets. If there's a style sheet for the menus, look for the z-index there. If not, put the menu code into a
and set the z-index of the
thru CSS.

I can explain more if you still need extra help...

Well, i was just trying to find a very good dhtml menu for my site and i stumbled upon that.

I put it on my site and forum http://forum.ivegeta.com/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi

But some members have complained that the page has loaded too long(and i have that ubb compression thing in too) so it has to be this menu.

Your suggesting that css is an answer? Where may i be able to find help? I just want to get a fast loading menu up as quickly as possible.

You're getting a little off track now. You originally asked how to keep the menu on top of other things, but now you want to know how to make it load faster? Like I said previously, to keep it on top of everything else, set the z-index of a
that you put it in to about 99.

As for other menus, we like the HierMenus here at UBBDev. smile
