Thanks. I got rid of that CSS element and did a few workarounds for it, and now the menus display properly.

Menus opening as wide as the browser window

I'm having some serious problems with my menus on my forum. I upgraded the forum software, and now when you mouseover the menu items, the submenus open up as wide as the whole window. I can't figure it out.

The menu with the problem is at the bottom of this page:

That's it! Now I can rebuild my funky Stargate to light up with my cool new menu.

Thanks! :)

Okay, I thought I had figured out how to enable a mouseover in the menu, but I am getting an error in Windows IE (it worked in Safari though.)

Here's the old original html:
<a href="/forums/" OnMouseOut="return CloseChevron(8)" OnMouseOver="return ForumsChevron(8)">SG-1 Forums</a>

Here's what I ...

Okay, I got borders working and I even solved the IE Mac issue (the menu_data file was in UTF-8 encoding or something).

Now I have begun to add onfunction and offfunction stuff and it's still working great!

I have one question though: When I look at the menus in IE 6 on Windows, there is some ...

Looks good, you might want to add a border now to submenus, you could now copy the main menu style and rename it submenu, and change the style name on the submenus.

So I went ahead and tried that. Now IE is broken again (and I did save my original menu_data file, so I don't get it. I pasted the ...

Okay, maybe I spoke too soon. It looks like it screws up still in Mac IE, making itself wider than the browser window, then if you reload it looks right.

Mac IE is the worst pile of junk ever created! :evil:

I did a whole bunch of stuff, including all your suggestions, and now it is working! (It's a royal pain to make it look similar in Windows IE, Mac IE and Safari - which I use.) It still looks just a bit "off" in Mac IE, but if it works, then the 10 people out of 10 million that use Mac IE can get by ...

Those aren't part of the menu script. The menu sits inside a table cell within that element.

I added the semi-colon.

I had version 5.07 and just upped it to 5.09, but the menu doesn't show up in Mac IE still. I tried to follow the instructions to make it work in Mac IE but maybe I missed something.

Thanks for everyone's help.

I still can't get it to work in IE on Mac though. Can someone take a look at what I've got and help me out?

I tried what you said, but I still cannot get it to work. It is only as wide as the text, and that is useless to me. What am I missing?

Also, it doesn't even appear at all in Internet Explorer on the Mac. I need this to work in all browsers. I'm thinking of dropping the idea for javascript menus ...

Width of vertical menu in table

Hello. I testing out this menu script to see if it can be integrated into my site. I cannot figure out how to make the menu as wide as the table cell I am putting it in.

See example here: http://www.sg1archive.com/index2.shtml

Thanks
