Fix for IE where child items appear behind its parent's sibling

Last updated on

You are browsing documentation for an older version of Drupal, which is not supported any longer, and the information may not be correct. See current documentation for Contributed modules

In this example,

<ul>
    <li>item1
          <ul>
              <li>child-item</li>
          </ul>
    </li>
    <li>item2</li>
<ul>

viewed in IE, the child-item can appear underneath item2 due to the way IE interprets z-index.
Adding this fixed it for me:

ul.nice-menu li.over {
z-index:6;
}

(Use a value of 6 because the regular nice-menus CSS declares z-index 5 for "ul.nice-menu" and "ul.nice-menu ul")
