Problem :
If you are working on hover menus with sub-menus & under it there is an image. When you hover menu & expanded sub-menus hide behind image as both div’s are positioned well with the right z-index property.

In Internet Explorer positioned elements generate a new stacking context, starting with a z-index value of 0. Therefore z-index doesn’t work correctly.

Fix :
To fix this bug, Give parent div a higher z-index value

<div style="z-index: 3000">
    <div style="position:absolute;z-index:1000;">
	<a href="#">Page</a>
	        ...
    </div>
</div>
<img style="position:absolute" src="image.png" />

Great News for all cricket fans as IPL 2010 will now be broadcast first time live on YOUTUBE.

YouTube™ is the world’s largest entertainment platform where people enjoy the videos.

Google India today announced an agreement with the Indian Premier League and its licensing partner Global Cricket Ventures that will enable it to stream all the action from latest season on a dedicated IPL channel on YouTube at www.youtube.com/ipl with a five minute delay across the world, except in the USA, which will have re-broadcast options as the TV rights have been sold to tv channel.

While using on one of my project encounter this problem, When I open Home Page after installation an endless loop occur.

Why this happens?

It happens when during installation of Wordpress MU, database was not created but the wp-config.php has already been written. If wordpress find this file then installation not begin & it search for the DB to load blog but actual DB information is not there. It try again & again to load blog & redirect loop occur in result.

Fix

To fix the issue simply rename or delete the wp-config.php that was generated during the first install & re-install wordpress mu. Make sure you have corrected the DB problem before you go through the install again & database user you are using during installation have sufficient permission to create and manipulate database tables.
