Drop down menu disappears behind SELECT box in IE6 ?

Recently I came across a problem in IE6 which my client had reported. We had six SELECT boxes in main page and these SELECT boxes were placed just below the main menu. There were three menu items with drop down just above the SELECT boxes. I have placed everything correctly and finalized it. It was working fine with IE7 and Firefox. But when we checked it in IE6, the drop down menus were displaying behind the SELECT boxes.! I tried Z-Index to fix it- 1, -1, 100, 300.. But it didn’t help me anyway.
