Menu width changing in Firefox, Mozilla after... [Solved]

[mfrie01]

I noticed that release 5.728 has a fix relating to changing menu width with Mozilla-based browsers. I have a problem with the menu "contracting" when returning from print preview. The menu is set relative and in a fixed-width table. There's no problem with Explorer 6, and if you hit refresh with the others the screen repaints properly.

You can view the problem by going to:

Thanks,

I'm not seeing that in Firefox/Mac. Probably because the main window remains and is not replaced by the preview.

Somebody else will have to try Win, at least until I get back in the office.

Hi Michael,

Yes it is doing it on a PC. I figured the solution. You need to specify a menu width, it has something to do with it being in the table and being aligned right. But, if you specify menuwidth=690;

Code: Select all

with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
style=menuStyle;
alwaysvisible=1;
orientation="horizontal";
position="relative";
menuwidth=690;

then it will not shift smaller. I think 690 is about what you need to keep it looking in the same place it is now.

Thanks so much,
