Menu adding whitespace to my page in IE 6.0

Post by ggmike »

Hello, I have a page that is designed as follows:

_______________
| Page Content |
|_____________|
|Horizontal Menu|
--------------------

You can see it at: http://www.yachtsupportgroup.com/home.html

The problem is that the menu adds a large amount of whitespace to the document at the bottom, so that even when the whole webpage fits in the browser window, the scroll bars still appear.

Does anyone know how to overcome this problem?

It looks like you're trying to put the menu in a table. Please read the information on that kind of placement. http://milonic.com/tablemenu.php This may solve the problem. If not, please let us know and we'll try something else.

I've tried this, but without any luck. The problem still persists. Any other ideas what might be causing this? The problem doesn't happen in firefox. Another wierd bug: if I roll over to a submenu, the scrollbar dissapears and doesn't come back until another page loads. What could be the cause for that?

Nevermind - I just added 2 little options:

openstyle="up";

and

followscroll=1;

I'm not sure which one fixed it but I'm happy now! :D
