Please note that official support for this menu version has now ceased. There are still plenty of users, though, and the forum is still running. Some of our long-time users may be able to help you out.

Hi,

I'm going to need a URL or some code to look at?

Opera 5.0 is buggy but the mnu should work on 5.11 and above.

People knock Netscape 6 but it really isn't all that bad :)

Cheers

Same Problem

Post by basssolo4u »

Hello,
I found out from a visitor that I have the same problem as discussed. The menu fills up the entire screen of a mac using IE5 but not Netscape 4.6. The URL is http://www.lilyssiren.com/home.html. I changed the horizontal menu width for pixels in the menu_array.js as file from the default setting of ", " to a pixel valur of 40 but that did not seem to help. I would greatly appeciate any insight to help remedy this problem.
Best Regards,

This menu works in all but IE 4.5 on a mac

This menu has worked in every browser we have tested in EXCEPT MSIE 4.5 on a Mac

I have one heck of a browser list that I have to check against so trust me when I say that I have pain stakingly done so.

I don't know why you guys are having problems with it other browsers,
especially filling the whole screen!! thats weird!!! I can't help from experience on that one.

As for not displaying at all, I've deffinatley seen that one and 9 out of 10 times a busted table cell and the menu positions set to negative numbers, hiding it off screen somwhere were to blame. Better browsers are willing to forgive you for not closing a <tr>, <td> or <table>. Older versions of NutScrape are not, nor is Opera.

I'd make sure that the left and top positions are set to 0, and 0,
If you see the menu, wrap another table around it and see what happens
and experiment with any bg images or place holder images you might have in the cell with it.

These are just things that fixed my problems, (except IE 4.5 on the Mac). I can't even see the menus on THIS site in that browser.

I hope something in this helps someone more than it helped my artharitis heh

p.s. heh Andy come back to the light! Don't let Nutscrape fool you! just make an image gallerey with about 20 or so images and when you have to reload NS (any version) 20 times before ALL images show up at the same time, you'll forget you ever said that
Good, bad........I'm the guy with the gun.
