Firefox Compatibility Issues

[dlarock]

I am having several firefox compatibility issues.

http://www.invariantsystems.com/default-test.htm

1.) Menuwidth 100% - when viewing in IE I get the menu to span the whole width of the screen. With Firefox this does not happen.

2.) When opening up a menu to see the drop down options with IE it drops the menu options under the menu (desired and expected). With Firefox it overlays the actual menu box.

Any thoughts.

Looks like it's doing what you told it to do...

Code: Select all

_subOffsetTop=2;
_subOffsetLeft=-2;

Also...

Code: Select all

<!--outfilter="randomdissolve(duration=0.3)";-->

<!-- --> is not a JS comment. Should be...

Code: Select all

//outfilter="randomdissolve(duration=0.3)";

John,

I am sorry but I need some further instructions. Okay how am I telling it to look different in IE than Firefox? It operates 100% different in the two browsers.

I am sorry I missing something obvious on this, but can you please tell me or refer me to some documentation that discusses what I am doing wrong?

For clarification I want firefox to display the menu like IE.

Sorry 'bout that, Darrell. The grey stuff has not been functioning well lately.

Anyway, I took your code and placed it on my server at http://www.west.asu.edu/sa/testsite/index.htm. Note that under both FF1.5.0.4 and IE7/beta2 it functions exactly the same and as you want.

Check the source for some minor changes; e.g., embedded_menu.js is hard coded, not a call (not entirely sure if that makes a difference), and I have commented out 3 items there; your final call to menu.js has been commented out entirely, as it was throwing a JS error.

In menu_data.js I changed fixMozillaZIndex to true. Again, not sure of the relevance there. No other changes were made.

Thank you so much for your time and follow-up effort on this. I appreciate it very much!
