Horizontal centered menu alignment prob in Netscape 7

Hello - pls see:

http://www.dataemergency.co.uk

using Netscape 7 browser - it shoots off to the left and loses some of its colour attributes / shadow / separator lines....padding..etc...

It's fine in IE ...

How to fix this ?

You'll need to upgrade before we can help. You're running 5.03, and 5.19 is current.

Also, on my setup (XP Pro/IE6) the menu sits too high. It almost completely covers the phone number (the top of the menu is half-way up the dark grey bar).

Yes, upgrade, I think that actually fixes the problem. And , you will always lose the shadow in Netscape or any other browser except IE; that is a filter which is IE specific and only works on IE windows OS.

Thanks Ruth and John - problem fixed in Netscape...

1) can I be automatically emailed with news of updates to download ? or do I just keep checking the site myself ?

2) John - worrying news re. dodgy positioning of menu in IE6 / XP Pro.... not come across that...what to do ?

3) Can anyone check on a MAC (Explorer 5:2) out there n see how it looks ? or tell me where / how I can check that myself somehow ?

4) I am also told by my client that my "site doesn't work on Linux OS" - I am assuming he means the menu ..but have no way of checking ...any ideas ?

Thanx

Michelle

You can get an auto email. Go to this topic and check watch this topic. http://milonic.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3108 That will get you an email on each new update.

I don't know what's happening in IE6 and XP, but some things to check are your style sheets, sometimes things in them like padding and margins may affect the menu. Also, some overfilters items like shadow will shift the menu position though that only affects IE since it only works with IE.

Looking at it now in Safari and it seems to be OK. At least the text above it is now fully uncovered and visible. It almost looks like it might be able to come down 1 or 2 px more (top=131;). Don't have XP here at home (thank you Lord!) so can't check that end of things.

Looking at it under Red Hat 8/Mozilla 1.0.2 (standard issue), everything is working just fine.
