I am having issues with a CSS navigation in IE. The navigation has top level links with drop down sub-menu’s on hover. The issue is that in IE when one moves off the top level link in an attempt to select one of the options from the drop down sub-menu, the sub menu disappears.
The navigation displays fine in Firefox, Safari and Chrome but the issue occurs when using IE.
I have used this exact navigation elsewhere (just without the extra padding between the main and sub links) and have tried a number of fixes but nothing seems to have worked. I am not sure if it has something to do with the header image which the navigation is placed on top of as when I remove this, the issue resolves in IE. BUT obviously I need both to work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
HTML code is:
CSS is:
#header {
width: 960px;
height: 222px;
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}.headertext {
margin: -200px 0 0 650px;
font-family: “Myriad Pro”, sans-serif;
font-size: 0.9em;
color: #ffffff;
position: relative;
z-index: 2;
}.headertext ul{
padding: 0px 0 0 30px;
list-style-type: none;
}.headertext li{
padding: 0 10px 0 0;
display: inline;
font-family: “Myriad Pro”, Sans-serif;

July 10, 2013 at 2:25 pm #142168NicNacsMemberethayer594, the problem was with the “top” positioning in the following CSS:
#nav ul ul {
background: #333333;
border-radius: 0px;
padding: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 105%;
}This created a “disconnection” between the parent and subnav child. I removed it and added padding instead and it solved the issue on my side. I hope this is helpful to you.
