hello,

I'm working on a dropdown menu, somehow i managed to make it work on Firefox, Safari and IE (Version XY on Windows 2000).

On all the other IE Versions it doesn't show the submenu <ul id="Menu2"> at all.

Seemingly it's a CSS problem. But after hours and hours on different blogs I still didn't figure it out.

I hope you can understand my question and I hope I posted in the right forum,
regards from switzerland.

The code (Menu2 is dynamic, Menu1 isn't):

div id="Menu1"><ul id="Menu1">
            <li class="Hom"><a href="">Home</a></li><li class="Team"><a href="">Team</a></li>
            <li class="Forschung"><a href="">Forschung</a></li><li class="Lehre"><a href="">Lehre</a></li>
            <li class="Info"><a href="">Infos</a></li><li class="Kontakt"><a href="">Kontakt</a></li></ul>	
            
<% if Menu(2) %>
  <ul id="Menu2">
    <% control Menu(2) %>
      <li class="$LinkingMode"><a href="$Link">$MenuTitle</a></li>
    <% end_control %>
  </ul>
<% end_if %></div>

CSS:

#Menu1 {
			float:left;
			width:160px;
			padding-right:50px;
			padding-left:10px;
			overflow:hidden;
			z-index:-1;
		
		}
				
			#Menu1 li {
				float:left;
				width:160px;
				height:21px;
				margin-bottom:5px;
				
			}
                        #Menu1 li a {
					display:block;
					color:#fff;
					font-size:1.3em;
					text-decoration:none;
					font-weight:normal;
					padding:3px 5px;
					
				}
#Menu2 {
	margin-top: -2px;
	padding-bottom:2px;
	float:left;
	overflow:hidden;
	background-color:#fff;
	z-index:5;
}
	#Menu2 li {
	background-color:#fff;
	}
	#Menu2 a {
		font-weight:normal;
		font-size:1.3em;
		line-height:1.6em;
		text-decoration:none;
	}

Browser bugs are a shitty subject. Use a HTML/CSS framework to get rid of those problems.
