I need some help. I'm using Superfish navigation with Ultimate Fade-In Slideshow. The two scripts work in harmony in every modern browser and lots of ancient ones... Except for Internet Explorer. In IE, the drop-down nav bar gets hidden underneath the fading images. See what I mean at http://www.cabatproperties.com/newsite/tallahassee/index.html. I thought (and I still think) that the z-index settings might be the culprit. Using "inspect element" in Firefox, I can see that the Javascript image fader I'm using moves the z-index up by 1 each time the image fades. That's fine with me -- In my Superfish CSS, I set the z-index on the navbar astronomically high (99999) so that the navbar won't end up behind the image fader unless you stay on the page for 2 or 3 days straight. The CSS for the navbar is at http://www.cabatproperties.com/newsite/css/superfishnav.css, if anyone would like to inspect that.
Ideally, I'd like to keep Superfish. I like it a lot because it degrades very nicely in older browsers and even seems to work without Javascript turned on. As for the image fader, I could care less which one I use, as long as it gives me the same basic function. If anyone can help me remedy this unfortunate situation, it would be very appreciated. I know that it can be done. I found a similar setup on another page: http://www.dynamicinteractions.com, and it works like a charm using a different navbar and image fader script. I tried Superfish with the image fader script on THAT website and didn't have any luck. If worst comes to worst, I may just have to steal both scripts from that site so that I know they work in harmony, but that navbar script isn't as nice, in my opinion. I have a feeling it's something pretty simple that could be edited in the Superfish Javascript or CSS, but I know next to nothing about Javascript. Anyone?
