I just wanted to report back in case anyone else was having this problem.

It turns out this was caused by using menuwidth="750px" instead of menuwidth=750 (just the number and no quotes). It works fine now. I guess Mac/IE is just picky that way.

Ok, I tested it in a variety of browsers on both PC and Mac and it seems to work fine.

Also, as a side benefit, thanks to you I was able to fix another problem I had posted about today, namely the fact that the menu bar was not filling the width of the table cell in Mac IE v5. Well, I saw you had ...

Interesting. I like that. Is that just from the addition of the screenposition parameter? I hadn't played with that one. I'll test it in different browsers and see.

Thanks for the help, John.

Thanks, John and Ruth, for the responses.

When I remove the hard-coded width altogether, the menu bar doesn't fill the space, which is ugly.

I was able to change the width to 100% without any problem and it gives the same effect as hard coding it.

One odd thing I noticed is that in IE the menu ...

Thanks, Ruth. Yes, I tried 100%. It does the same thing. I have both a Mac and PC which comes in handy for testing.

Yes, the last time I checked, IE for Mac was used by fewer than 1% of web site visitors. So I'm not going to worry about a small cosmetic "flaw" for that browser. Just thought I would ...

Menu in table cell too short in IE 5

My main menu is inside a table cell. In the style I have specified the menuwidth to be 750px. This works great in every browser I have tested except IE 5 for the Mac. On that browser the menu only extends as far as is needed to list all the menu items. It leaves a large gaping hole from that point ...

Can I justifty the menu?

Hello, I am implementing the most basic variation of the DHTML Menu v5 on a site. For placement on the page I have the main menu inside a table cell. I have the menuwidth set to a specific size (750px) to line up underneath the rest of the header. What I would like to do is evenly space the menu ...
