Hello-
I was amazed at the suckerfish drop-downs from AListApart.com. They
work great except for one thing, if I position the drop-downs over an
iframe element, on mouseover the menus disappear. It works fine in IE,
but not FireFox. I would like to implement these menus, but if I can't
get this to work, I gotta look at something else.
If anyone has some suggestions, I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
ANdrew Maddox
