Thanks Joel. Here's a demo page: http://iamzed.com/jquery/
superfishtabs.html
I put the info. on what I customized from the default superfish.css
on there.
Hi Chris, thanks for the demo page it helped enormously. I found that
applying the z-index:3 rule to an element further up the tree, such
as .nav li, instead of .nav li ul, fixes the problem.
I should probably have made a definitive CSS file for Superfish which
takes as many possible issues like this into account and also makes
the menu prettier by default. Truth be told, I just slapped that one
together and expected folks to work out the CSS for the menu as they
would have to without the Superfish plugin. Maybe Superfish would
benefit from a more polished CSS file such as Klaus's brilliant Tabs
plugin has.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention Chris - I love the
opportunity to further refine things. I will apply the fix to my demo
page's Superfish CSS also.

P.S. the reason the tabs were jumping down on your demo page was
because the #header element was switching between different hasLayout
modes. Adding height:1% or something similar (I noticed you use
display:inline-block instead) fixes that. I know you said your actual
page does not have the problem, but knowing why it happens on your
demo page may help you next time you run into that issue with IE.
