Issue with CSS MenuSidebar Extension
Posted: April 13th, 2012, 4:03 pm
Hello Paul & All.
Firstly thank you for some excellent skins. I've just installed and set up the CSS MenuSidebar Extension on MW1.18.2. Everything works great on the standard themes, Vector, Monobook etc. However, on your GuMax theme, the popup menus are drawn under the main page content.
I really don't know much about CSS so this is an appeal for help in fixing this issue. I have looked into it as much as possible and cannot find the problem. The z-index parameters seem to be set correctly (Firefox Web Developer addon shows the menus rendered on top) but then doesn't actually do it.
Some images:
The GuMax skin (what happens):
The Vector skin (what I would like to happen):
I hope it is evident what I am trying to explain. With the top URL, the menu is lost under the page content. With the bottom URL, the menu is displayed above the page content, as would be expected.
There are several mentions of this error on the extension's Talk page, and I have implimented all of the suggestions; the extension works with any other skin.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to have revert to the boring Vector theme!
Many thanks in advance
