I think I found the reason for this: The Internet Explorer Z-Index bug. I'll have a look at the CSS properties and see if I can fix this.

Fixed it! According to the blog post I linked to in my last post about this, the z-index should be ascending throughout the tree because of some bug in IE6. I saw that the menu dropdowns get a z-index in the range of 1000-10xx, so I gave the gumax-p-navigation a z-index of 500 and gumax-nav a z-index of 600 in the css files. That worked.

I tried some other things as well throughout the process (such as setting the z-index for the img tag to 1) so that may have had some effect too but that on its own was not enough. Transparency was not the problem, it works fine now with the transparency still activated (A nice touch in the skin by the way).

Hope this helps the others who had this problem too.
