3.visited the website www.worldofwarcraft.com
4.highlighted a menu with an arrow next to it
5.sub-menus appear transparent.
Actual Results:  
Sub-menus have a transparent background, whereas the text and outline of the sub-menu appear.

Expected Results:  
When I highlight an item, such as "talent calculator," a sub-menu should appear to it's immediate right.  The menu should be black and OPAQUE with text.

i see that correctly, have you tried to delete cache in Clear private data?

Attachment: Page loading error.

The background of the website does not load properly.  The menus are also transparent.

could you check in View / page style what is the selected one? i see CurrentStyle and orc, the latter look as your example, while CurrentStyle looks fine

I tried the Currentstyle and orc, but neither effects the transparency issue I am having.  I used the Toos / Error Console, and I have a large list that starts with  :"Unknown property 'example'.  Declaration dropped"  Could this be of any importance?
