You had better test this in Firefox in a restricted real estate. If your menu is long (and scrolling) in a limited area, you may find that selection is odd.

It is a bug that can be difficult to replicate if you got things just right, but you should check.

changeParentText does not appear to work if using the buildAfterLoaded variable set to true. The text found after first selection is 'undefined' and the submenu no longer tracks the parent. Since the dropdown combo box does not work correctly in restricted space (with the submenu set to overflow scr...

The use cases I had been dealing with were all based on zero based (left and top) cases. When I simplified the example in my prior post the left hand TD was removed and the offset problem exposed. In order to use this workaround you must have a td on the left which is width 100% in style. Vertical a...

Certainly. You will need to supply the dropdown arrow in this example, but this shows the absolutely positioned table using a relative milonic menu 50 pixels off of the top of the page and on the right. I have modified the standard dropdown logic a bit to ensure that on selection the dropdown submen...

I spent some time experimenting here. Although an absolutely positioned div will show this problem in a hurry, you CAN use a relative positioned Milonic menu within an absolutely positioned table. The table can cause a few layout hassles, but in the majority of cases (that I have been dealing with) ...

There is no resolution as of yet. I was forced to modify the layout to use absolute positioning.

This is a relatively strong limitation for relative positioning at this time.

This is an old thread, but I can not help but throw in a few cents worth of comments. First - That particular reviewer is one of the worst I have come across. Her comments lack detail and are often alarmingly innaccurate. Generally, that whole site is one that hits a lot in google but tends to be cl...

Menu display problems in IE and Firefox

Yes, thanks for the suggestion, but the 747 build makes no discernable difference in behavior. Additionally the behavior is extremely consistent across browsers (IE and Firefox). The only time I can see a change in behavior is when the variable fixMozillaZIndex is set to true. In that case, the subm...

I have also seen this problem. I have tried the buildAfterLoad=true; global property without affect. My menus are embedded in a table within an absolutely positioned div. Interestingly the onborder is rendering at the offset location as well as the submenu. Using Version 5.746 Milonic Account Id: 16...
