5.728 Bug with Google AdSense and Opera

[photomicke]

Menu: 5.78
Browser: Opera 8.02 and IE 5.00.292
Env: Windows XP and Win 2000

The problem is that my sub-sub-menus will hide below the google AdSense ads when they should show above the ads. This is not a problem in IE6 or FF.

I do not have a site online where I can demonstrate this at moment since you have to be logged in to reach the subsubmenus. But I do have this screenshot:



Is this some kind of layerproblem? The menu is not placed inside DIV's and we follow the placement of menu insida table recommendations.

Hi,

Do you have a URL of where this is happening.

This is not something I have seen before and I was sure that Google use plain HTML for their ads.

Cheers,

AdSense is a call to a remote JS file, Andy. Looks like this...

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-nnnnnnnnnnnnn";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
google_ad_format = "728x90_as";
google_ad_type = "text";
google_ad_channel ="";
google_color_border = "CCCCCC";
google_color_bg = "CCCCCC";
google_color_link = "000000";
google_color_url = "666666";
google_color_text = "333333";
//--></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
  src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>

Im not really sure how google does it, but I think it's some kind of iframe. I could send one of you guys a sample account so that you can try it out. The site will be released today.

Hi,

I see the problem now. We've been working with Opera on this issue for a while now and they tell us that it is on the ToDo list and will be done soon.

Sorry about this but our hands are a little tied at the moment.

Cheers,
Andy
