without looking thoroughly through your code I wonder if you have set any z-index properties to the menu. If not then set it to z-index:100 or something high, and see what happens

z-index:100 for the div is also not working dude.

z-index does not solve the problem :(

And, hiding my combo, onmouseover of drop down menu is no good because my menu content does not fully cover the combo box, so it does not look good when the combo disappears leaving behind a blank space...

Unfortunately this is true in Internet Explorer. It' not going to work no matter what you set the z-index to because the select box is rendered as a window component and not as a document element. I had found a couple of workarounds but they require javascript.

The method I used required an iframe to "hide" the select box. Basically, you use an iframe in between the div dropdown and the select box (kinda like a sandwhich). Since the iframe is another window component it will cover up the select box if it's positioned after the select box in your markup. The dropdown div then covers the iframe. The javascript is used to re/position the iframe every time the dropdown div is activated.

Here are more details:

Hope this helps.

It would help if a working URL was available. I can't see the page but could it be re aranged so that the controll did not conflict.
