  My drop down menu disappears when I try to select something from the drop down. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You have some errors in your CSS you need to correct first and see if that fixes the issue.

  In #access a you have text-decoration: bold; which is not a valid value for that property. Bold would be a proper value for font-style. http://www.w3schools.com/Css/pr_text_text-decoration.asp .

  Under #access ul li.current_page_item > a,#access ul li.current-menu-ancestor > a,#access ul li.current-menu-item > a,#access ul li.current-menu-parent > a you have color:#color:#002C77; .

  You need to fix that as well in * html #access ul li.current_page_item a,* html #access ul li.current-menu-ancestor a,* html #access ul li.current-menu-item a,* html #access ul li.current-menu-parent a,* html #access ul li a:hover

  When you did your CSS, did you paste the entire stylesheet into the CSS edit window? That can cause issues at wordpress.COM because it ends up breaking the relative links in the CSS.

  I’m still seeing some of the issues I reported. Text-decoration cannot be bold. It isn’t a valid value for that property. It can be none, or underline, or overline, or line-through, or blink or inherit, but it cannot be bold.

  #access a {
  display:block;
  text-decoration:bold;
  color:#002C77;
  line-height:24px;
  padding:0 19px;
  }

  #access ul li.current_page_item > a,#access ul li.current-menu-ancestor > a,#access ul li.current-menu-item > a,#access ul li.current-menu-parent > a {
  color:#color:#002C77;
  }

  * html #access ul li.current_page_item a,* html #access ul li.current-menu-ancestor a,* html #access ul li.current-menu-item a,* html #access ul li.current-menu-parent a,* html #access ul li a:hover {
  color:#color:#002C77;
  }

  No, I didn’t copy the entire sheet.

  I made the changes, but I’ve been generally having problems getting it to save….I think it kept changes this time.

  Without reading through all the changes you’ve made and looking for a “proper” fix you could try including/replacing the properties under #access ul ul to:

  top:0; padding-top:38px;
