Unable to click submenu items of menu control in master page when overlapping with table in content

[DCC700]

I am unable to click on submenu items of a .Net menu control in a master
page when overlapping with table in the content page.

I am using VS 2005 and the menu control provided in .Net. I have a
master page with a horizontal menu control at the bottom and have
defined sub menus that drop down with the specified options. As long as
the submenu items don't overlap with content below I can click on them
and they work as expected; however, as soon as the items start
overlapping with content they cannot be clicked and thus do not
function.

Any help with this will be much appreciated.

For anyone who might experience the same issue, one of my colleagues
figured out the problem. In order for the controls in the master page to
show on top of those in the content, the controls in the content need to
be relative. If the controls in the content are absolute then they will
appear on top whenever there is overlap.
