white edges on menu not good

[rickferens]

Hello,

Is there a way to get rid of the white edge on the right and bottom of the menu block? See www.nationalaccountdoors.net. I had recently updated the menu but to no avail. It looks great on the Mac but the white edges appear on a PC with Explorer. I remember seeing a post about this issue years ago but it doesn't turn up in a search. Your help would be appreciated.

The menu is great in all other respects!

Thanks, Rick Ferens

Hi,

I take it this only happens in Internet Explorer?

If so, it's probably the drop shadow on the main menu.

Here's a copy of your menu with some modifications. I made a copy of your menuStyle and applied some changes to it, then declared the main menus style as mainStyle:

Code: Select all

fixMozillaZIndex=true; //Fixes Z-Index problem  with Mozilla browsers but causes odd scrolling problem, toggle to see if it helps
_menuCloseDelay=200;
_menuOpenDelay=100;
_subOffsetTop=10;
_subOffsetLeft=-0;

with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
bordercolor="#000000";
borderstyle="solid";
borderwidth=0;
fontfamily="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial";
fontsize="80%";
fontstyle="normal";
offbgcolor="#000000";
offcolor="#ffffff";
onbgcolor="#4D5D8C";
oncolor="#ffffff";
outfilter="randomdissolve(duration=0.3)";
overfilter="Fade(duration=0.2);Alpha(opacity=90);Shadow(color=#777777', Direction=135, Strength=3)";
padding=5;
separatorcolor="#000000";
separatorsize=4;
subimagepadding=6;
}

/* Take a snapshot of menuStyle */
mainStyle=new copyOf(menuStyle)
/* Set the new mainStyle's outfilter and overfilters to null */
mainStyle.overfilter=null;
mainStyle.outfilter=null;

with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
top=14;
left=440;
alwaysvisible=1;
orientation="horizontal";
/* Apply the new mainStyle to just the main menu */
style=mainStyle;

drawMenus();

Thanks Andy,

It seems to work fine on my PC, I will check it on several versions of IE. And yes, it was only occurring on a PC.

I didn't know there was a drop shadow feature, thanks for your the time and the code!
