dropdown

I'm having a problem with a dropdown menu under IE (6 and 7).

http://www.amaconsulting.pl/promocje.html

As you can see, the dropdown hides behind the main content area in IE.

It's a known bug and general advice is to set a z-index for header and content areas, so IE knows their "place", explained in the article here: http://bit.ly/coSPcI

I've set the z-index of .header div to 20 and .featured, .content, .primary, .main to 1, trying to find the right div to fix the problem. While the dropdown stopped hiding behind the .featured div, it still hides behind the main content divs (either .primary or .main, .secondary is fine).

The z-indexes for these divs are set in a separate stylesheet, ie.css, in case someone'll be looking for them.

If someone could provide some advice, I'd be very grateful.
