Hi Justin,
We’ll look into this and try to get a fix as soon as possible. In the meantime, select the item that contains the menu (in this case “menu-wrap1”) and in the Extended dialog (Command-X) select the
tab and enter z-index in the Name field, and 1 in the Value field.
Cheers,
Joe

I have a sililar issue with my latest 5.5 site that I’ve opened in v6.
The sub menus don’t appear at all. I’ve looked at browser inspector and they are hidden as they should be but nothing happens on rollover of the main nav. They are simple text based menus with background colour. I even deleted the menu and created a new one in it’s place with the new action. Nothing. I’ve tried the z-index trick too Jo, and nothing.
I’m working in an inline model for my site, but had no issues with this in 5.5 and browsers.
I also have an issue with the transition effect on a graphic. Created a simple hover fade over some graphics. It works fine, except for a white piece of text lower down the page, unrelated to the images with the effect on, changes to grey and white as the effect takes place on the graphic. It seems to only happen in the Freeway Preview window and Safari. Chrome and FF ok. I’ll get this site online at some point.

Thanks,

I’m having the same problem (sub menu does not show). This is a brand new site in FW6.

I have followed Joe’s instructions above re: z-index; value 1 but that still did not work. I have also downloaded V6.1.
How do I fix this?

Try using the z-index to the parent div, not necessarily the CSS menu div.

Mark,
Thanks. However, the problem remains. Just to be clear, I’m selecting a parent div (header-wrap), under the “Item” tab in the Menu bar select “Extended…”, then under the “
” tab type: “z-index” in the Name field and “1” in the Value field
Any other suggestions?

Yep that’s right. Just a quick check. Have the submenus got a background colour assigned?

Try a higher value in the z-index. Try 10.

If nothing has changed in th last two minutes, then this WILL fix your menu
problem:
Go to the div element named “header” - change the overflow from “hidden” to
“visible”.
Publish. Preview. Sorted.

Ernie,
Thanks but changing the “header” item to “visible” did not make any difference. I checked all the items and the only hidden one is that named “content”.

Something changed from the time I viewed the published html/css to when you
tried my solution, because my solution worked using your page code and
nothing else.
It happens, especially when you’re trying everything under the sun to get
something to work. It is still the same problem - the bottom of the header
div is cutting off the overflow created by the menu - the trick is
relocating where that is happening and fix it.
Best of luck.

Thanks Ernie. I saw that there is another div (spacer-colour) that I remember putting there to help with the design. I deleted it (screwed up the border) but still did not help the situation. There are so many variables, I will just keep messing around and hopefully will hit the jackpot. I have also sent the file to Softpress support.
Thanks again.
PS
I tried a new file from scratch with only a few divs. Found that I needed to have the css-menu item “hidden” in order for that case to work.

Yes, this css menu action uses floats to align items which is tricky. I
don’t use actions to build my menus, instead preferring css display
attributes (inline, inline-block, table-cell) to achieve instead of float.
Best of luck,
