CSS Z level error on dropdown menus

Talk about today's strip, or anything about the comic in general. You can also talk about any of the characters... but don't expect a response. They're FICTIONAL, you guys... sheesh. :)

CSS Z level error on dropdown menus

Post by jolly_fat_man » Wed Oct 26, 2005 10:47 pm

I'm using Firefox 1.0.7 for ubuntu linux and I get a mistake in the dropdown menus in the main page.
The css on the menus, particularly the Z level is lower on the menus than it is on the banner add.
Just a heads up so that the page is "spiffy" as someone would say.

Nice comic and wasn't the car green? =)

Can you explain more clearly what it is that you're talking about? I'm using Firefox 1.0.7 on XP Pro and see no issues with the menus.

The menus have a tendency to drop down behind the ads, making some of the links inaccessible. This happens to me sometimes too.

Same probelm here but only on the animated ads. Static Ads menus work fine.

I'm using Firefox to and the same thing happens to me the drop down menus above the comic go down below the add thus making some of the items in the list unavailable to click on. I emailed Greg about this but he never responded.

I see it now. It only happens with Flash ads.

Mmmm.... Flashblock.

(And, no, I don't consider it to be the same thing as ad blocking. I consider it protection from sites that randomly play unexpected sounds, while still being able to read Strong Bad's emails. Non-Flash ads render just fine.)
