hi.

in XOOPS 2.2 using the default admin theme, I get this problem with Internet Explorer, where the drop down menu is shown behind form elements. It seems to work fine in Firefox.

Has anyone been able to solve this? Or got any tips?

Firefox:

am i the only person having this problem?

I have had this problem - not only with XOOPS but in general the usage or a menu system with overlaying a dropdown box list. I have seen it on many web sites where there is a dropdown menu and just below could be a listbox item. I have not yet found a fix for the problem - I have tried all methods of static, relative, using <div> and still have had no success. I think that it is probably deeper than the application layer and more of a lower level functionality. If you do find a fix - please post here as I am keen to be able to resolve the issue too.

Under IE, form Select fields refuse to relinquish the top spot in the z-order. Unfortunately the only solution is a rather dirty JavaScript hack, in which you write a script that hides the offending select field while the menu is visible. I choose to modify the layout of the forms instead, so that the menu wouldn't popup over select fields.
