Whenever a datatable is displayed, the dropdown menu background goes gray. Some of the items are hidden behind the datatable. How do I fix this? I am using version 2 of datatables and version 6.4 of Foundations.

What dropdown menu are you referring to?
Is the dropdown within the Datatables table?
Have you used the browser's inspect tool to see what styling is applied to the grey background and hidden items?
Styling issues are easier to debug with a running test case showing the issue. Please provide a link to a test case that we can help debug.

After logging in, open View Section 1. Open the View menu option again and see how the dropdown menu looks. Search is not functional yet.
This is what I see:
This is not part of Datatables. You might need to refer to the docs for the dropdown or use something like Stack Overflow to learn how to bring the dropdown forward on the page. Possibly you can set the z-index for the dropdown to a higher number.
I used the Datatables search input and it seems to work. Can you provide the steps to show how its not working?
