Menu does not display in Netscape 6.0

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.

I have problems only with NS6. Version 6.0 on 98 and NS6.2 on XP. My menu displays however the right border is twice as thick. NS probably canged something throwing calculations off. All IE browsers are fine and lower versions of NS. Compatiblity is an important aspect.

Menu does not display in Netscape 6.0

Post by Andy »

Hi,

I have tested v3.3.18 in various browsers and on different OS's.
(Internet Explorer 5, 5.5 6, Netscape 4.08, 4.7, 6.0, 6.1 6.2, Mozilla 0.9.6, 0.9.7 0.9.8, Opera 5 6, on Windows 98, NT4, 2000, Me XP)

The menu is fantastic and works in all browsers as expected, EXCEPT for Netscape 6.0. grrrr.

The problem is that the menu will not display AT ALL. Not even the top level menu which should aways be visible. No drop downs, no javascript or display errors occur and the pages work normally in all other ways despite this. I am running other scripts on the page but they do not conflict with the menu.

I assume it is a browser implementation fault as the old NS4's and the newer 6.1 and 6.2 are working fine. If you guys can't find a fix for this i guess we'll just have to like it and lump it - NS6.0 has a very small % of browser usage anyway so no big deal, but it would've been nice to have the menu working in ALL browsers at least.

Does anyone else have a problem with NS6.0 (not 6.1 or 6.2 - JUST 6.0)??

cheers

Right. Doesn´t work in NN6.0 here. The weird thing is, the demo pages work in NN6, leading me to believe I must be doing something wrong.

On to the troubleshooting forum I go.

Just as a suggestion. If your using relative position, why not write "NS6.0 is full of bugs. Please upgrade to Mozilla or NS6.2 <i>under</i> the menu. Only 6.0 viewers will see the message and maybe you'll help clean up the web :-).
