960

I am having an issue in IE8 where my dropdown-style navigation is going behind another element. I have tried everything from setting the offending element's zindex to 1 and the dropdown to 99 and 999. I think it has something to do with the fact that I'm using 960 grid, as it worked before when I wasn't.

Update: Problem occurs in IE8.0.6 but not IE8.0.7

Here is my stylesheet and you can see the issue happening here
