ie7 is driving me nuts!!

[joergmark]

hi i've created a horizontal dropdown menu in contao with css. it works in every browser exept ie7.

everytime the mouse leaves the text in the menu ("Office") the submenu disapears and is not usable. so my guess is that there is some problem with the box model and the :hover function is not working on the "li" item but only on the text...

so i spent now a lot of hours searching and experimenting... with no success.

hope someone can tel me which mistake i made in the css...

What you also could look at is the pixels between your level_1 list and the level_2 submenu. If there is a single pixel of free space there IE7 (and many other browsers as well) will hide the menu as soon as the moude hits that room in between. Due to small browser differences you may have that 1 px difference in IE7. That was usually the problem with my use of the pseudo class hover. But I haven't had that in a long time (which may relate that to older browsers like IE7).
