css drop down menu positioned incorrectly - css

Hi guys this is my CSS code for a drop down menu:
#nav {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
background-color:#60625C;
bottom:0;
left:0;
margin:0;
padding:0;
width:100%;
position:absolute;
z-index:1;
}
#nav, #nav ul {
line-height:40px;
list-style-image:none;
list-style-position:outside;
list-style-type:none;
width:100%;
}
#nav a, #nav a:hover {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
border:medium none;
display:block;
text-decoration:none;
}
#nav li {
float:left;
list-style-image:none;
list-style-position:outside;
list-style-type:none;
border-right:1px solid #6E7073;
}
#nav a, #nav a:visited {
color:#FFFFFF;
display:block;
padding:0 20px;
}
#nav a:hover, #nav a:active, .current_page_item a, #home .on {
text-decoration:none;
}
#nav li ul {
border-bottom:1px solid #6E7073;
height:auto;
left:-999em;
line-height:30px;
margin:0;
padding:0;
position:absolute;
width:222px;
}
#nav li li {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
background:#1E1F21 none repeat scroll 0 0;
border-left:1px solid #6E7073;
border-right:1px solid #6E7073;
border-top:1px solid #6E7073;
width:220px;
}
#nav li li a, #nav li li a:visited {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
background:#1E1F21 none repeat scroll 0 0;
color:#FFFFFF;
font-size:0.9em;
font-weight:normal;
}
#nav li li a:hover, #nav li li a:active {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
background:#60625C none repeat scroll 0 0;
}
#nav li:hover ul, #nav li li:hover ul, #nav li li li:hover ul, #nav li.sfhover ul, #nav li li.sfhover ul, #nav li li li.sfhover ul {
left:auto;
}
However the menu is being placed in an unwanted position at the bottom of the screen.
How can I make it display between the title and main content of the blog?
This is the code relating to the navigation in 'header.php'
<div id="navbar">
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=&depth=0&sort_column=menu_order&exclude=56'); ?>
</ul>
</div>
Many thanks in advance.

Drupal 7 main menu text overlapping

I have set up a site with Drupal 7, using the theme called "Professional Theme". I've found problem with text-overlapping on the main menu. There are two rows in my top menu bar. I've found the drop-down menu text has overlapped with the text on the text on the 2nd row of the menu. And I can't click on the links on that drop-down menu as it would simply disappear when I move the cursor downward. May anyone tell me what's wrong with it and how to fix it?

Actually the css here is based on the original css for main menu in the Professional Theme.

Yet another "how to center my menu?" question

I have a fairly standard CSS driven drop down menu (the CSS for the lists & list items is below, if needed). All that I want to do it, is to center it in the browser (must support MS IE 7) ... but that seems to escape me :-(
Can somebody help me with this? Maybe a simple example? But really, I think that I probably just need a CSS class definition for an enclosing DIV ...
/*Color navigation bar normal mode*/

You can do it with the link g.b sent, but you can also do it by using display:inline-block; which will result in less code.

Try to specify z-index in your css:
z-index : 100;

CSS Menu Problems with Safari and Chrome

trying to fix a CSS bug for some code that someone else wrote. I'm no CSS expert, so I'm having trouble trying to find what is giving me this problem. This page is supposed to have 4 main menu buttons at the top. The user can hover over each and it will display a sub menu. This work fine in FF and IE, but in Safari and Chrome the buttons end up in the same spot, causing them all to display sub menus when you hover over the first button.
Link to HTML: http://www.blogtrog.com/code.aspx?id=c4c62a1a-af8f-4bfc-a3c3-f1fbf9013b3d
Here's the chunk of CSS that controls the main menu:

You might try using display: table-cell instead of list-style: none on the top level lis, and then set display: table; width: 100% on the top level ul. This forces the the lis to be displayed using the table layout algorithm, which allows you to define how much space you want the whole thing to take up (in this case 100%).
I would use a table for that. It's one of the situations that I find a table is most appropriate also means that you don't have to worry about it later should your require adding more links in the future.
I'm not sure that's possible. I think you will need to set the width of each menu element specifically to ensure it spans the full width of its container, and make the appropriate adjustments to your CSS file once you add new elements.
Danny answer work well here are the main element:
#menu_conteneur ul{
display:table;
width: 100%;
}
#menu li{
display: table-cell;
}
#menu li a{
display: block;
}
