Problem with drop down menu

[interlagos]

Hi, I'm using a template JTH-Nimbuse for Joomla 1.5 and i've tested it with both IE and Firefox and the dropdown menu doesn't work 100%. So far, i've only setup one menu selection NEWS with submenus under it. It only works if i begin running my cursor from HOME (from the left) then to NEWS, then i can run my cursor down to the submenus. Also, it will only work if i begin running my cursor from REVIEWS (from the right) to NEWS. But if i try to run my cursor starting from anywhere below or above NEWS, and then go directly on top of NEWS, then it will show the dropdown list but then when i proceed to run the cursor onto the dropdown list it disappears so i can't select Item 1 or Item 2 (those are sample submenus).

Sometimes it's the opposite, the dropdown menu disappears if i begin from the left or right. But will remain if i start directly below NEWS.

Can someone please take a look at this? I hope i described the problem with enough detail. Is this due to a bad code or some setting in Joomla? I selected "Position: Hornav" and "Menustyle: List" in the module manager.

ThankS!

It looks like there is a tiny gap between the submenu and the main menu, so when you move your cursor down it is (for a split second) not hovering over any menu parts, when you move the cursor slower it will close the submenu because of not hovering over it, but when you move it faster, it does not close as it does not register you not hovering over it.

You should be able to find somewhere in the code which tells the menu how far from the top to display the submenus.. tyr making this number smaller so the menu's are touching when you hover.

Hope this helps
