The menu works, but the problem you're having is the menu is displaying within the table cell (note the scroll bar on the right side of that cell). A simple fix is to add z-index:1; to all the elements.... even the parent element of the menu (ie the td ).

A more time consuming solution is to rewrite your code to use div's instead of tables. This is harder to do since you have to re-write your code, but in doing so it will display correctly across all browsers (with the exception of IE5.5).

Just my 2 cents
