Horizontal CSS Menu In IE Problem

Post by thewebworkshop »

Hi all,

I'm having a problem getting the horizontal CSS menu to work in IE. If you take a look at www.buccleucharms.com/golf you'll see what I mean.

The background colours are not being displayed on the drop down elements, and the menu tends to disappear when you go down it, unless you go very slowly and carefully.

The CSSMenu javascript file is getting picked up in as much as when I remove the link to it in the HEAD the drop down menu does not appear at all.

I've compared what I've done with a fresh install and I can't see any difference in the structure that would cause the problem. Any ideas gratefully received.

Running: CMSMS 1.2

Many thanks,

Andrew

The menu requires the JS for IE and it adds an h on the end of the menu items, in weird ways some times, so you may want to get the web developer tool bar for IE then open the page in IE and open WD and expand the left side items, click arrow next to it, till you get to the menu li a's and mouse over them and watch the names change to see what to target...

It also has to do with the content being set to position:relative...
