Car Overheating

overheating when in idle. When driving the temp gauge drops back down to normal. I had the thermostat replaced and the Cooling temp sensor replaced and it's still doing the same thing while in idle. Does anyone know what could possibly cause this? It's full of engine coolant and does not appear to have a leak anywhere.Both of my fans are coming on properly it appears.
