Milonic JavaScript Menu

Thank you. That did indeed fix the issue. My thanks for the great support, as always.

Hello once again all,

I'm having a new problem I hope you can help me with. I have the milonic menus in use on an online store that uses a security certificate. Microsoft, in it's never-ending quest for a secure browser, has a security warning posted when you visit the site with the menus on it ...

By the way- How are you using all of those different browsers? Different computers or did you find a way to make them co-exist? Just curious. I kinda want to upgrade to FF2.0 and IE7 but not at the price of losing my current browsers, plugins, etc.

Quite perfect, thank you

Your help is much appreciated, Ruth.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying, but if I do, I disagree. Look closely at this screenshot:

If you look at the bottom right corner, you can see that the menu background image overlaps the edge of the table cell.

If I'm ...

I think I've got something similar to what you said going. I have to manipulate the mm_styles table in a database to get what you're going for. At any rate, it seems to be working great now. Thank you :)

I do have one more question though - in IE, (actually in both browsers, but it is more ...

So it does... guess Firefox was caching.

The itemwidth does the trick, but now there's new trouble.

In Firefox, the submenus span the whole page (I would assume this is expected since adding the 100% affected all of the menus. I think I can fix this on my own).

However, IE is behaving strangely ...

Hello,

I just finished upgrading to the lastest version of the menu, and it seems the problem I was having with putting the menu in a table cell has vanished. (It was loading before the table had a chance to complete and thus stretching across the entire page - IE only.) Now, it works absolutely ...

Did you get any response to your inquiry, Ruth? I still can't manage to figure out this one.

<?php

//Variables for connections
global $milionic_connection;
global $ss_connection;


//Function to establish a connection to the Milonic menu database
function connectToMilonic()

global $milionic_connection;
//Connect to the milonic server
$milionic_connection = mysql ...

Can anyone help me implement this?

If you send over some sample data I'll see if we can create some sort of substitute field names so that you can use your field names with the database driven menu.

Funny that you post here. I was about to log in and post the solution I came up with ...

Any news on this issue?

No worries, you have helped a LOT as it is. I appreciate it.

I will wait to see what Ruth's post comes up with.

Thanks to you both again.

Thanks again, I do appreciate the help.

There's the exact paste of the top of the menu code that's generated by the PHP call.

Thanks for the replies. (And just for the record, it's "him" or "he" :P)

The second method Ruth posted isn't an option as this is the PHP mysql based menu, which gets built from the database by calling a php function. It puts all of the menu code wherever you call that function by default.

So I ...

Good thought, but when you do that javascript doesn't know what to do with the milonic code inside the table cell.

I really thought that was going to fix it :/

Hmmm.....I'm not getting any weird behavior. What version of IE are you using and what is your screen resolution? Mine is 1024x768.

Here's a cropped screenshot of what I see:

It's like this in Firefox and in IE.

Did you try clicking that link though ...

Now there are bigger problems in IE. When you click an item inside a one or two-deep menu, there are bizzarre results. The menu stretches all the way across the page, and sometimes takes the table cell with it, and in others just covers everything up.

Any ideas what's wrong?

I'm not getting any ...

Well, it appears I spoke too soon.

The line I'm talking about appears in FF only.
