Hvmenu sub-menus appear behind other elements

I've created an HVMenu with 5 top level items and up to 4 sub-menus. The menu looks great, but the sub-menus appear behind some other elements which are below it on the page.
It appears that the z-index of the menu / subs is less than that of the other elements.
This does not happen with text or edit boxes, but does happen with <select> and their <input> elements.
I've tried changing the z-index of the other elements - to no affect.
If anyone can help, it would be greatly apprecciated, as at the moment we can't use the menu at all.
Cheers

Speedracer,
Thanx for this reply - unfortunate, isn't it. Damn HTML limitations....

hi,

i have come across this issue with trying the hvmenu script too (great menu script, btw) in my current project - thought i'd posted what i found for reference for those who might come across this issue:

http://www.burmees.nl/menu/ - in the FAQ, there is a workaround that might help (but not for me).

and this seems to be IE specific too as Mozilla browsers seem to work fine from my prelim testing.

yuj

where is the FAQ... Maybe I ma blind but i cant find it on that guys page... .
