Z-Index problems in IE

Z-Index problems in IE

For some reason, I cannot get IE (PC or MAC) to see any value for z-index other than -1.

I have two lists. List One is being used as a drop down nav. List Two is being used as a regular vertical nav lower down on the page.

When a user rolls his mouse over one of List One's items, a dropdown pops up (using display: block and display: none:). This dropdown overlaps some of List Two's items.

In all other browsers, I am able to click on any of the items in List one while mouse is on, and when mouse is off, I can return to clicking on any of the items in List Two.

However, in IE (both PC and MAC) List one does not correctly overlap List Two, and I can see the <a> tags of List Two through the dropdowns of List One. (hope this is making sense)

I've tried using z-index to force the correct overlapping to occur, but IE does not respond to any z-index values, other than -1, which is a problem because it does not allow any items to be clicked on.

My site works fine with z-index (used mainly for menus). Try using position and right/left/top/bottom attribs in css.
