Offsets problem in MSIE.

Post by gazchap »

I'm trying to use the menu on this page:
http://www.source-web.co.uk/development/classic/

In Firefox, the submenu that branches off the "about us" option works fine. It appears to the right of about us, and is perfectly visible.

In MSIE, the submenu appears way over to the right in the middle of the main content part of the page, and is cut off as it goes underneath the four graphics on the bottom of the page.

How can I remedy this? It's driving me up the wall ;)

Hi,

This is because you have embedded the whole menu inside a table cell, both subs and mains.

What you need to do is either remove the subs and build them seprately or declare the global property buildAfterLoad=true; to the top of your menu_data.js file

There is a document on this here: http://milonic.com/tablemenu.php

Hope this helps,
Andy

//edit: Nope, I spoke too soon!

I've added buildAfterLoad=true to my menu data file but it's not fixed the problem :(

Because of the nature of the menus on the site (they're content managed) I can't easily separate out the main menu from the submenus :( Any other ideas?

//edit2: All sorted now, managed to separate the subs from the roots. Thanks for your help.
