CSS Menu won't show through nested Divs in IE7

If you look at the menu for this site: http://writershore.com/ltlaw/

The menu looks great in Firefox, Chrome, etc, but in IE7 the menu drop downs don't break through the nested DIVs.

Is this an overflow issue? A z-index issue? I've tried variations of both and doesn't fix the result in IE.

Thanks for any ideas!

The HTML code is broken. For starters you have two <html> tags. This will make the page render in quirks mode, which makes a dramatic difference for IE.

Fix the obvious errors in the html, then validate the page to see if there are any more problems in the code.

Thanks for the direction and I should have been validating my code all along. I'll be working on this tonight ...

... after working to get the code validated tonight, the page is now validated.

However - the menus appear under the content section in IE.

Any suggestions?

IF form elements or boxes are showing over top of the DIVs such as calendar popups it's not a bug in the javascript - it's a bug/feature of browsers. See this explanation
