? I don't see it...

I even looked further in this thread, reading:

In both ie6 and 7 on my box the dropdown is in front of the text (-as in
opera and ff.) However, it appears not when i "click" on "Services" but
when I hover over it, and clicking on it has no effect.

However, I know you've made some changes since first-post.
