Menu and Lightbox

Post by DownUnder »

Hi I'm new to this forum and need some help.

The menu shows through or appears in front of an image opened in Lightbox. I have lightbox in the <head> and the menu in the <body> - see http://www.pearl-beach.com/beta-test/index.htm

Can anyone help with a solution?

Many thanks,

Ian - DownUnder

It's to do with the zIndex of the menu, it needs adjusting:

Thanks, Andy.

As I said earlier, I'm really a novice at all of this.

I supposed that the line you provided is to be pasted into the menu_data.js file, which I did. Then the menu didn't appear in either IE or Firefox.

Copy of file...

fixMozillaZIndex=true; //Fixes Z-Index problem with Mozilla browsers but causes odd scrolling problem, toggle to see if it helps
viewtopic.php?p=42201#42201
_menuCloseDelay=500;
_menuOpenDelay=150;
_subOffsetTop=2;
_subOffsetLeft=-2;

Regards,

Ian

No, definitely not. The link Andy provided was to another post on this forum that shows some code. In that code you will see a line referencing zindex. Use that in your code.

Thanks John, for pointing me in the right direction. Very much appreciated.
My son keeps telling me that old people should not play with boys games if you don't know what you're doing!
Seems aptly true for me in this instance.

Anyway, it is now working fine as described Andy's link.

Again, many thanks.
