Submenu positioning [Now, With URL]

Post by casca »

Hi,

My menu function very well, except for a little problem in IE6+

As an image say more than 1000 words, they see the following images: :)
(I had that to blur the alternatives because the site is not official still.)

In the first time that I browse the menu appears of this skill.
Image

Then I slide mouse for another alternative and when I come back toward it he appears correct
Image

Because this occurs? Only in the IE and submenu that it has scroll of the side?

Hi

I don´t think so, the code of your page will say more on bugs than any image can do. It is really difficult to comment what could cause this except for... that the menu has not been implemented the correct way...
Can´t you provide a url ?

Not yet.. :roll:

Of any form all menus of my site function well and error-free of positioning.
The problem of the positioning occurs only in submenu with side scroll (overflow enable) and only in IE.

In Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape function normally
My page is mounted dynamically inside of a lop in PHP.

Well, I hosted my menu in fortunecity to show my problem.

http://casca.fortunecity.co.uk

I simply copy and paste the script result of the PHP in html page.

Now it tries in the IE to place mouse on alternative "Assist?ncia\Servi?os M?edicos" of the menu.
It notices that submenu appears outside of position. Navigate the will to examine better.

In Firefox, Mozilla and Netscape this not occurs.

Hi
Your menu is obviously not positioned correct.
try screenposition="center";
One of my monitors for example is 1280 px wide, and the menu is left oriented, and everything above the menu is centered !!

Michael

on first mouseover (sub: assist?..) in IE, yes I´m aware, it is the first sub-sub-menu pops up using a "wrong" position it seems.
Cannot get access via this url to your js files (milonic and menu_data)

Yes, it is with left orientation, but the submenus appears correctly (below your parent).

This is the problem that I do not obtain to decide. Bug of js seems up to one. It sees that running mouse for another alternative and later return for "Assist?ncia\Servi?os M?edicos" it appears in the correct position. :?

Hi

do you use the latest version of the menu? Please study

http://milonic.com/integration.php
FRIENDLY REMINDER: For support, it is required that the current version of the menu be installed.
For testing purpose you should prepare a html file which does not contain any other JavaScript code than thecode of the menu.
Based on that, you could proceed. There must be some interference with css or js.

I use version Version - 5.747 [Pre Release]. Anyway I used version 5.746 too, but the problem persist.

It sees well, everything the menu functions well and is mounted of the same skill. The only difference is that in the menu that possesss "overflow=scroll" I placed "menuheight=250", not to occupy the screen all. Of any form, you want that I place here the conteudo of "menu_data.js"?

Hi
but the problem persist
I just tested, using IE 6, cannot confirm at the present state of the menu, that there is something unusual, it seems to work. So what is the problem?

What really disturbs is the advertising popup. Why do you have that implemented?

The problem is that I want that the menu has behavior in all the same submenus.
I do not want that it appears in the top of the screen and yes below of the parent as in all other alternatives.
See what it occurs if I set “followscroll = 1” (visits http://casca.fortunecity.co.uk/), it rolls the screen and it has access the menu.
In the alternative “Assist?ncia\Servi?os M?edicos” submenu appears in the top of the page.
Because only with it? I do not understand.

You'll need to move back up to at least 5.746 for further support. You're now running 5.740, which is down-level.

which is difficult to solve.
It is not a problem of the menu, its a problem of using different scripts and/or css whch obviously don´t fit together. First step, Use css styling instead of menu styles.
Look at http://milonic.com/cssbasedmenus.php

Sincerely I find that bug in the Javascript for the IE is one only, therefore in the Firefox, Netscape and Mozilla the functioning is perfect…
I am distrustful that he is one bug of the menu when used together Overscroll and menuheight :roll:

Same problem.

Well now in the last version 5.753 .

In link below it has the page test that comes in the package:

http://casca.fortunecity.co.uk/

It rolls the screen until the menu to be in the top of the page, thus the difference is noticed
Look the alternative "links/anti span tool". I place in submenu the same itens of the samples menu, but with parameter "menuheight = 250;".

For what I understand submenus must appear below of the parents when nothing is specified, but is not this that occurs. The behavior of the positioning is different in the IE and the FF.
In my case the IE shows submenu above of the parent in a first instant, but in one second passed with the cursor it is correct. Already the FF always shows above of the father.

what has wrong?

Hi,

In a horizontal menu, the submenus will be below the parent unless you have specified an offset or if it is longer than the screen and you do not have overflow=scroll set and there is room for it to move up.

But in a vertical menu the menu does NOT go below the parent it goes to the side and is set based on the left and top submenuoffset code at the top of the menu data file

subOffsetLeft=; and subOffsetTop= are used to position a vertical submenu that opens from a vertical main menu.
