Works Netscape, now need it to work in IE

[florida]

My pop up drop down menu works but when over a form object it seems to get hidden by the input field of the form. It seems the form object over layers the pop up drop down menu. For Netscape I was able to correct the problem by putting these in my hide function and show function of the javascript:


//in the show area of my function
if(document.layers)
{
document.tt.visibility = "hide";
}

//in the hide area of my function
//stuff here etc...
if(document.layers)
{
document.tt.visibility = "show";
}



I was then able to hide the form with an <ilayer> such as this:


<ilayer name=tt>
<form etc....>
</form>
</ilayer>



This now works great in Netscape but how would I do the same thing for my IE 5.5?
