Bug with latest version of menu?

Post by MUTU »

Hi,

I've upgraded the Milonic menu to the latest version on gfi.com and since I upgraded, when you hover over the red triangle at the top right hand corner (next to the Spanish flag), it puts in a horizontal scrollbar. If you then hover away from the menu and go on the menu again, the problem is fixed. I believe this is a bug because it used to work out first time with previous versions of the menu.

When will this issue be fixed please? It's been reported almost 2 months ago! I had to downgrade a few versions to solve the problem.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, we are currently in very heavy development for the next generation of Milonic products.

Anyway, can you please try one small change to your data file.

In your flags menu, can you add a menuwidth, like this:

Code: Select all

with(milonic=new menuname("f1")){
style=submenuStyle;
menuwidth=90
...........
Then upgrade the menu to the latest version and let me know if this helps or not.

Cheers,
Andy

I tried this and quickly reverted back, because it forced a horizontal scrollbar at all times.

I'll need something to work with then. When I take a snapshot of your site it works perfectly.

Is there anyway you can create a test page with the new version on that I can use for testing and debugging? As I say I cannot reproduce this when I take a copy of your site.

That's perfect.

Can you now change this:

Code: Select all

<script language="JavaScript" src="milonic_src.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script	language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
if (parent.frames.length) {	top.location=document.location;}
if(ns4)_d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=mmenuns4.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");
  else _d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=mmenudom.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");
</script>


To this:

Code: Select all

<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.milonic.dev/milonic_src.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
if (parent.frames.length) {top.location=document.location;}
if(ns4)_d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=http://www.milonic.dev/mmenuns4.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");
  else _d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=http://www.milonic.dev/mmenudom.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");
</script>

This will allow us to test the code files from our development server. Don't worry about not being able to reach milonic.dev it's only available through our own network.

One last final thing, can you change this line:

<script language="JavaScript" src="/templates_utf8/menus/flagsmenu.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

to this:

<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.milonic.dev/flagsmenu.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

should be able to start testing then

I managed to solve the problem by using imagewidth and imageheight, though the horizontal scrollbar does flash for a millisecond the first time you load the flags menu.
