Ok - now I have a new problem (I'm kinda new at this....)
from some reason the text in the top menu is half-missing - the sub-menus show up when you're over the menu but the text doesn't show.
Here's the script

The very first thing you need to do is upgrade! The current (and last) version in the v3 series is 3.5.15, which puts you 20+ levels down. As v3 is officially no longer supported, a move up to v5 would actually be better.

Agreed, also its tough to really grasp the problem you are seeing without seeing it ourselves. Do you have a URL so we may view it?

here's the url

Two answer your two questions, you have a flash file on the page. DO a search for flash transparent and wmode and you should find your solution to making the menu appear over the flash file.

Second, I think the reason your text is getting cut off is you have the menu width set...if you remove that it will let the menu expand so all the text shows. You have it set to 120 which may not be enough for some of the menu's text. Take it out or increase it, see what happens.

Lastly, I would again recommend upgrading.
