Coda Slider and Z-Index

[thesprucegoose]

Good Morning Forum,

I'm attempting to make my drop down menus go in front of my coda-slider, but alas, no bacon.

I'm assuming it's a z-index issue somewhere. Any ideas?

Below is what I changed so-far:
Menu CSS:

.jqueryslidemenu{
width: 940px;
height:3px;
margin: 25px 0px 0px 30px;
padding-top:15px;
z-index:25;
}

.jqueryslidemenu ul{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;}

/*Top level list items*/
.jqueryslidemenu ul li{
position: relative;
display: inline;
float: left;
width:149px;
letter-spacing:1.0px;
font-weight:300;
font-size:15px;
font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
margin-right:2px;}

Coda-Slider CSS:

.stripViewer { /* This is the viewing window */
			position: relative;
			overflow: hidden; 
			margin: auto;
			width: 900px; /* Also specified in  .stripViewer .panelContainer .panel  below */
			height: 250px;
			clear: both;
			background: #fff;
			z-index:-5;
		}

Success!

.jqueryslidemenu ul li ul{
position: absolute;
left: 0;
display: block;
visibility: hidden;
text-align:center;
vertical-align:baseline;
border:none;
z-index:25;}

/*Sub level menu list items (undo style from Top level List Items)*/
.jqueryslidemenu ul li ul li{
display: list-item;
float: none;
padding:5px 0px;
background:#000000;
border-bottom:#536d9a solid 1px;
color:#536d9a;
z-index:25;
}
