There is a long running bug in IE where select boxes ALWAYS display on top of any overlapping elements. All solutions basically boil down to two approaches:
- Hide the select boxes when a menu is displayed. Easy but appears tacky. - Put an iframe directly under the menu (iframe will always block a select box). Fiddly but appears slick. There are probably prebaked versions of these fixes around. I suspect most of the JS libraries have them.
