Custom Menu Sub-Menu Dropdowns Not Displaying

    I have created a custom menu in WordPress using the menu editor (Appearance -> Menus), and I moved some of the items as a sub-menu under another item by dragging and dropping to the right beneath that item. My problem is the sub-menu items are not displaying.

    I tried specifying a depth on the wp_nav_menu call:

    wp_nav_menu(array( ‘menu’ => ‘Main Menu’,
    ‘container_id’ => ‘cssmenu’,
    ‘depth’ => 2,
    ‘walker’ => new CSS_Menu_Maker_Walker()
    ));

    But, it doesn’t work. I’ve tried several different styles (including simpler ones without the walker). But, I always get the same result, the top-level menu displays, but the sub-menu drop-downs do not display.

    Can anyone help with this?

    I’m using a custom theme that I created.

    Do you have the CSS for the drop-downs?

    I’ve actually used two different styles for the drop-downs. Neither displays the drop-downs. One is the #access classes. The other is the #cssmenu classes. Both were obtained from 3rd parties. Here they are:

    /*
    First we prepare the navigation menu bar
    `
    #access {
    background: #4572BF; /* Show a solid color for older browsers */
    background: -moz-linear-gradient(#4572BF, #6187C7);
    background: -o-linear-gradient(#4572BF, #6187C7);
    background: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0% 0%, 0% 100%, from(#4572BF), to(#6187C7)); /* older webkit syntax */
    background: -webkit-linear-gradient(#4572BF, #6187C7);
    -webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4) 0px 1px 2px;
    -moz-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4) 0px 1px 2px;
    box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4) 0px 1px 2px;
    clear: both;
    display: block;
    float: left;
    margin: 0 auto 0px;
    width: 100%;
    }

    /*
    Now we style the unordered list, hover effect, and sub menus
    */

    #access ul {
