Spry Submenu hides behind other layout tables whenviewed in browser

[firsttimespryuser]

Hi - I created a horizontal spry menu except when I preview in browsers
(firefox/ IE/ safari) and check to make sure it works I find that sub menu
items are hiding behind layout tables/ graphics positioned under the menu table.

I've managed minor successful modifications of the widget - I've resized the
boxes, re-colored them, and used underlined text instead of boxes, but this is
all I've done. I can't see any reason why it would be happening.

Does anyone know the answer?

Have you tried a high number z-index?

Hi Nancy - unfortunately this does not seem to be the answer - but I can say
that I have now given it a good go (and thank you for the suggestion I was
wondering how things were grouped/ sent to the back etc in DW)
Thank you for your reply though.

If I was to add code to the msg I don't know what would be the best section to
select - all suggestions welcome

Layout tables are never a good idea .. can you post a URL to your page?
