Doesn't work on Mozilla

Hi,

I made a drop-down menu full compatible with ASP.NET and VB.NET

It works fine on IE6, but on Mozilla the drop-down menu hides when you hover 
a link from the list. It actually works even worse in Opera, the menus don't 
drop down at all.

The "Microsoft only code" I use is filter:opacity, but this is inoffensive 
to the behaviour of the menu.

The problem, I think, is in how Explorer interprets onmouseover an 
onmouseout

The menu is working here :

The only link it works is the Home Button

Thank you for any help

The problem is not so much the HTML and script for the menu itself but 
the iframe you have put in the document below the menu (respectively the 
HTML table which you use for the menu).

If you remove that iframe then the menu displays and works with Mozilla 
1.7 and Opera 8.
What you are trying to achieve is not possible across browsers in a 
reliable way, you want to have a menu created in one document overlap 
the contents of a document in another frame, that iframe.
Even with older IE/Win version (e.g. IE 5) you would have that problem.

With the upcoming Firefox 1.5 the menu over the iframe will work but the 
whole design of that page with the menu and the iframe where the menu is 
supposed to overlap the iframe should be changed to not use an iframe if 
you target the web in general, as said various browsers and browser 
versions have their own way when it comes to iframes.

Flash and DHTML menus is also a problem where browsers behave 
differently depending on the browser version, the platform, the Flash 
version.

On some platforms for some browsers and Flash player version 6.something 
or 7 you can try
   <embed wmode="transparent"
to embed the flash movie in a way so that normal CSS z-index can be 
applied to define the z-order stacking.

Check Macromedia's documentation on the Flash player for details on 
which browsers and browser versions on which platforms support that.
