Great theme! Only problem is the dreaded IE7 Z-Index bug where the Superfish menus drop down behind the page content. This does not happen on any other browser (Firefox, Safari, Opera, Chrome, IE6 or IE8). I developed the site using the 6.x-3.0 version of the theme and all was well. When I upgraded to the 3.1 version, the problem returns.

Perhaps the Z-Index fix was not included in the 3.1 release?

I have not changed anything in the theme with regards to z-indexing for superfish menus apart from the background color.

Changing category until I see some content and more examples, cant be sure this is the theme or a problem with your content/site.

Thanks for the quick reply. The only way I could sort the IE7 problem of menus going behind content was to revert to v 3.0 of the theme.

I have setup a test site (which is exactly the same as the main site but with v3.1 of the theme being used).

Actual site: http://www.intelli-data.com (v3.0, menus fine)
Test site: http://www.intelli-data.com/test (v3.1, menus disappear).

Again, both versions of the theme are fine in Firefox, Chrome, Safari, IE6, IE8 but not in IE7.

I use FF almost exclusively but I had feedback from test users about IE7 (so I knew the problem was not isolated to one machine's config).

I have the same issue in IE7, its an internal website so I can't give a link, but I'm just throwing in my $0.02. Reverting back to 3.0. Screenshot Attached.

Thanks guys, I found the problem, its with the base_path file_exists condition, I've made some changes and will release a new version which fixes the problem, and another minor issue I found with the skip link.

Should be out very soon.

Everyone using this theme should upgrade right away, as it also solves the same critical security issue that plagued the Garland and other themes that were updated along with Drupal 6.11! If you fully upgraded to 6.11 or applied the SA-CORE-2009-005-6.10.patch, but are using this theme’s previous version, you’re still vulnerable to the potential XSS exploit that those patches were designed to fix!

If you can’t upgrade for whatever reason, then edit your page.tpl.php file to move “<?php print $head; ?>” above “<title><?php print $head_title; ?></title>”. This blocks a potential XSS exploit involving specially crafted article titles by forcing safe UTF-8 encoding thereof.

Thank-you Joel, you are quite correct, indeed the latest version does include the security fix.
