My nephews site: www.robbielv.com Menu uses layering and iFrame. Links in menu work but the Site Map link at the bottom of page and links on the bulletin board are broken. If we remove the menu, those broken links work in both FF and IE. Tried moving the iFrame load after the links but that didn't help. Entire site is under development so don't be too harsh. ;)

Played with the options a bit and found the cause is due to the z-layer size for the menu, the document links on the layers below the menu layer don't work in FF. Shrank the menu layer so the layer is not full screen but it still breaks the links on the benner just below it. Is their a way to shrink the menu layer so when the sub-menu closes the banner is clickable and enlarge the menu layer when the sub-mennu's open so the sub-menu doesn't get truncated?

It's something you fix throughout (presuming the author can't write it validly to begin with). Again, I suggest that you address the invalidations asap - starting by using an appropriate doctype declaration - for the reasons outlined in the article linked previously. Help others who might be inclined to help you, by clearing away invalidations and thereby ruling out completely the chance that invalidation might be contributing to the problem. Don't risk wasting the time - or asking more than you need - of people whose help you want and need by expecting them to establish whether the invalidations are contributing to the problem. Like I say, read the article (again). That said… At a guess, it's possible something to do with the fact that the content area is Flash-based. Flash is 'physically' added to the web page differently to markup-based content. It's 'windowed' above the other content. This often leads to problems when trying to have markup-based content appear above/on top of Flash-based content. _________________ aka 'clemi'
