V5 Menu on Mac OS X - Safari and IE
V5 thru 5.1 exhibits display problems on Mac OSX; it displays normally on Windows XP SP1 / IE 6.01
The issue arose once we moved to using IFRAME's. I understand IFRAMEs are supported, whereas normal FRAME's are not. The IFRAME works perfectly on WinXP / IE 6.
Platform OS: Mac OSX 10.2.8
Browser: Safari 1.0.2
Issue: Menu is drawn across the IFRAME, however you cannot select any menu entries below the IFRAME border.
Platform OS: Mac OSX 10.2.8
Browser: IE 5.2
Issue: Menu does not draw across the IFRAME.
Example URL: http://www.cacdenver.org/
Please advise on how I can correct (possibly using HTML or menu data), or an ETA on updates to the menu that will correct.
Thanks!

Has anybody else had a chance to look at it?
The FAQ info speaks about using IFRAMES instead of the unsupported FRAMES, which I did.
Is it an issue with the menu code? If so, is there an ETA on fixing? (Since it works perfectly on the PC, and just fails on the Mac OSX, it seems to be a compatibility issue with OSX browsers.
Also, how can I escalate this issue with Milonic?
Thanks!

I also have the exact same problem. Works perfectly in PC environment, but not on Macs.
Use version 5.40

Re: V5 Menu on Mac OS X - Safari and IE
Under OS X10.3.5/Safari1.2.3 (v125.9), I don't think I saw any problems. Under PWM's I dropped down to 2000 and got to that page. All sub-menus were on top of the iFrame.chad_monteith wrote:V5 thru 5.1 exhibits display problems on Mac OSX; it displays normally on Windows XP SP1 / IE 6.01

One solution
I had the same problems (see above post). In the end I used a buffer iframe to display in a div (using a script from http://www.dyn-web.com, but im sure there are others). It seems to be working nicely. Now I just have to fill the page with nice content.
I've noticed that in some older browsers the hidden iframe shows up as a small box at the bottom of the page, but i dont care about that..
I think this may be the only way to work around the problem?

John,
I don't know what's going on with http://www.cacdenver.org (which is what I assume you're talking about) but there doesn't seem to be an iFrame under the menu in question so that's not a good example. A better exmple would be the menu found on Fulmers site. I'm sorry I can't post a link to my site, it's in our intranet and is thus password protected.
I can post a sample page with an iFrame and a menu so that we can test with that.
