Hi All
[i]I posted this similar post yesterday but I think the ActiveX subject scared many prospective readers away.[/i]
I am having problems with V5 of the menus. Work fine on a standard setup but when I browse using IE6 with AcitveX disabled in the security settings the menus are replaced by a text area.
However, if I use FireFox with Javascript disabled the menues simply don't appear (as they shouldn't).
An example of this is http://www.breakerscafebar.co.nz.
Any ideas why the IE ActiveX security settings would be affecting the menus' in this way?
Thanks
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,
I'm catching up... Still having the problem?
I think you can probably attribute it to the "filter" effects that one can apply (defined in the menu's overfilter and outfilter properties). I see you've been messing with them on your site. These effects only work in IE5.5+, and are produced through DirectX (This would explain why you don't see it in any other browser). Disabling ActiveX will, I believe, prevent the effect, but since js is still enabled the browser is still tryingf to render the effect... leads to odd behavior.
This is mostly a guess on my part (haven't yet tried to reproduce it). You could test the theiry by temporarily commenting out your overfilter and outfilter(s), then disabling ActiveX as you had before, and see if the odd effect no longer occurs.
Cheers,
Kevin
