Drop down menu compatibility issue

I have a drop down menu that is working fine in FF 3.5 but not in IE 7. Will you please have a look at it and help me find out where the conflict is? I am thinking it is a CSS issue but it may also be a javascript issue. The menu is here:

and the menu script I used is here:

Thank you.

You may be having an issue with the slideshow images having a higher z-index than the menu itself. I don't think it is a javascript issue.

You should be able to fix this in the css. Don't change the slideshow z-index however, that is needed to overlay each image on each other, change the drop down ul's.

The z-index of the menu drop downs is higher (999) see line 38 of menu.css. Is there somewhere else that I need to change it? Thank you.

Yo,

FYI your dropdown doesn't work in IE 6 either.

Yo Reckoner! IE What? LOL Regonize 2009 + target audience. Excuse the pun but IE 6 is not being considered except by gun point.

You ARE aware that 25-30% of all CORPORATE USERS are stuck with IE6?? Antiquated - - hell yes.. but we're stuck with it! So, as long as you're not trying to sell to those people, you're fine

IE7 (and 6) have serious issues with nested positioned elements:

Thanks for the info. Where can I read more about these statistics?
