Drag and drop pop-up menus

As always, I apologize if this has been posted, I tried to search but couldn't find an answer...

I have a pop-up menu that is dragable, but in IE (firefox works fine) when I drag the menu, drop-downs are not hidden behind the menu. Any drop-downs initially under the menu hide correctly, but if I move the menu, you can tell there is an iFrame (or something.. however the menus work under the covers) is left behind where the menu first opened. This is an intra net site so I can't post a URL, but I'll do my best to post the menu code

Code:

with(fieldHelpStyle=new mm_style()){
   styleid=1;
   bordercolor="#9BA6C2";
   borderstyle="solid";
   borderwidth=1;
   fontfamily="arial, tahoma";
   fontsize="11px";
   fontstyle="normal";
   headerbgcolor="#94BCF8";
   headerborder="1px solid #1852D8";
   headercolor="#000000";
   imagealign="top";
   itemwidth="185px";
   menubgcolor="#FFFFFF";
   menubgimage="submenu_bkg.gif";
   offbgcolor="transparent";
   offcolor="#000000";
   padding=0;
   separatoralign="right";
   separatorcolor="#999999";
   separatorpadding=1;
   separatorwidth="85%";
}

with(milonic=new menuname("FieldHelp")){
   orientation="vertical";
   style=fieldHelpStyle;
   overfilter="Alpha(opacity=80);)";
         
   aI("type=dragable;text=Dragable piece here");
   aI("text=some text goes here;");
}   

The code to display the menu is simply

Code:

popup("FieldHelp", 1);

Wasn't sure if I wasn't doing something right... Everything works correctly if alwaysvisible=1 since the menu is initially displayed, so it seems to be something to do with the popup.
