There is one browser out there (I believe it's Safari) that keeps all nested
ULs "in view", that's why now the ":hover rule" includes a background color;
and this is why you always see this element "on top".
I'd try to use a background image (on body or a wrapper) and make sure that
rule includes a background color that matches this image.

I'd duplicate the ":hover UL" rule for the "current" ID; then give these 2
rules a different z-index (a lower one for "current").
