I hate css, this makes no sense. I finally finished styling this menu and now I click a different page and the links are all white on a white dropdown bg. I can only think it somehow has to do with the li.current-menu-item style but it doesn’t make sense why. Nothing shows up in firebug either.

This page works correctly: http://www.brainbuzzmedia.com/themes/simplybusiness/

This one has white links: http://www.brainbuzzmedia.com/themes/simplybusiness/?page_id=86

If you figure this out could you please tell me how or what you use to debug?

    On the second link, the sub–menu item links are having the white colour applied with the following CSS:

    div.nav-menu ul li.current-menu-item:hover a

    What you should change this to is:

    div.nav-menu ul li.current-menu-item:hover > a

    As you only want to target the children <a>s of <li class="current-menu-item">, not all descendants.
