Milonic JavaScript Menu

My top level menu items stay highlighted (ie mouse over state) when they are used as links, but not when their child menu item links are used, can that be done?

Thought I would post one more time on this as I found out some more about Macs and Flash and the menu.

Basically I got so frustrated over the whole Mac thing that borrowed a Mac to see it for myself. The Mac is running OSX and IE 5.2 so its not the same as the designer's but its closer than my IE6 ...

I am getting this:
Error Occurred While Processing Request
Error Diagnostic Information
An error occurred while attempting to establish a connection to the server.

The most likely cause of this problem is that the server is not currently running. Verify that the server is running and restart it if ...

Leaving the designer to one side for a moment (or permanently if poss). Now I am not sure what I am doing (no change there then) as using my own machine, IE6 + SP1 on NT4, the red text is below the blue thingy, ie as you say its gets obscured as the 'legs' of the thingy go by.
On your config the ...

Hi Kevin,
Thought over the whole thing and decided we need to know exactly what the Mac will and wont do so pointed the designer toward that macromedia page you mentioned in a previous post(http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash ... /wmode.htm) expecting him to say the example under 'Item 3/Example ...

Used the code for the <object> and <Param> tags, disabled the ie5 check on kc_Func() and testing in IE5 on W2k IT WORKS! Thanks Kevin. Also got the designer to test on his Mac but unfortunately no improvement. Tried to sniff for IE5 on a Mac and hide the div if found by modifying the function in kc ...

OK the designer has got back to me re IE5 on Mac OS9.1. Apparently it does not work although it does not fail in the way you might expect :cry: . Rather than the old 'drops behind like IE5 on Windows' problem, the menu does draw over the top of the Flash, however its badly corrupted, ie 10-20px ...

Kevin,
Its definitely IE5.0 not 5.5 hence my surprise (running on NT).

Re the substituted jpg images, check out the menu at the botton of the screen, at 800x600 I think some of these will pop-up and intersect with the Flash elements.

Still waiting for the Mac user to get back to me however he did ring yesterday to point me toward this site http://www.jaguar.com/uk/ "They have menus over the top of Flash animations" says he, "leave it with me" I said 8) , confident it would be a simple trick like hiding the Flash and replacing it ...

Ow, Ow, Ow .......

Will test on a Mac & report back

Kevin
Tried your sample in the zip file and Both Mozilla and Netscape work fine . Played around with my page that uses the Flash thing again and still no joy . I have to prepare for a meeting tomorro now but will look again monday. If you have any pointers I would be glad to hear them.

I also found that it worked in Mozilla 1.1 (never tried 1.02 or 1.2.1) in Windows. Are you able to get the sample contained in the .zip file to work in NS7?

Good point, should have thought of that :oops: I will check it out and let you know

Unfortunately, I don't have any Macs to develop/test ...

Does anyone have kevin3442s functions for hiding Divs working OK on Netscape 7 or Mozilla 1.02 ?
Its fine for me on IE5 but not the above browsers.

Also, anyone know how to mod it so it picks up IE5 on a Mac? I am assuming it does not work for ie5 on a mac but if anyone knows different please tell ...
