I have been testing the menu for use with a site that I will be updating and have come across the following issues:
In IE 5.5 a border exists around the edge of the menu which is not visible on IE 6.1.
On IE 5.2.2 on Mac it is pushing the menu items down to a second line.
The site can be viewed at http://www.wetlandcare.com.au/newlayout6.asp
I have dropped the following script below the menu script (after searching this forum):
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript
src="Scripts/menu_array.js"
type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript
src="Scripts/mmenu.js"
type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript>
if(mac){
mn=getMenuByName("menu_array")
gm=gmobj("menu"+mn)
gm.style.width=100
}</SCRIPT>
Should "mn=getMenuByName("menu_array") " refer to the array file?
A little off topic, I have also noticed that the IE 5.2.2 ignores the div align tag i.e. <div align="right"><img src="images/misc/Title_News.gif" width="148" height="34"></div>
Is this common or am doing something wrong.?
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Menu display issues with IE 5.5 (PC) and IE 5.2.2 (Mac)
Hi Stuart,
To answer part of your question, "menu_array" in this case refers to the menu array's name... this would be the name that you give to a menu in the first element of its array. For example, suppose your main menu is called "mainmenu". The function call would be
Hope that helps some,

Code: Select all
mn=getMenuByName("mainmenu") Kevin
Thanks Kevin.
I did manage to get the menu working in I.E 5.2.2 for Mac by replacing spaces with "nbsp;". Did notice that if "/" was used between words such as "News/Events" it would also push the second word down a line. By placing a gap beyween the "/" and adding "nbsp;" either side corrected it.
I am still experiencing problems with I.E. 5.5 (PC) adding a border around the menu when the setting is set to "0" and the border colour set to",".
Any ideas???
I could be wrong but the menu appeared to display similar issues in Opera 7.1 (PC) as I.E 5.2.2 for Mac. May be a good testing platform for developers without access to a Mac.
