Hi Brandon,

If you recall, the addition of an iframe to the superfish submenus  
interfered with the animations in IE6. You can see this in action on  
my demo page. However, I have found that if I delete this...

filter:Alpha(Opacity=\'0\');

...from your plugin, all the animations work perfectly as per real  
browsers, and the submenus still stay above the select elements. I do  
realise it's possible that this only happens to be a good option in  
my case because I am adding the bgiframe solution only on hover (I  
would remove them on 'hoverOut' too), therefore I don't need to make  
the iframes invisible (I don't see the iframes even though I removed  
that line - I take it the iframe is behind the submenu?).

Would it be possible to add an option to your plugin so that the  
opacity is not applied? That way developers have the option of  
dynamically applying and removing the iframe, allowing animations to  
work on the element the iframe is attached to.

No rush of course - its the weekend :)

Cheers
Joel Birch.
