CSSMenu and Internet Explorer 5.2 Mac

There seem to be a few questions in the archives about getting CSSMenu to work with Internet Explorer. I've read all the ones I can find, and I still can't get it to work.

I am setting up a completely new version of my site, starting from scratch in a new installation of CMS (Maui). My menus work fine in Firefox and Safari, but I can't get them to work in Internet Explorer 5.2 for Mac. The menu appears, but nothing happens when I hover over the items (no colour changes or drop down menus). I don't know about Windows versions of IE - I'll have to check that from work on Monday.

I do have

Code: Select all

<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<__script__ type="text/javascript" src="modules/MenuManager/CSSMenu.js"></__script>
<![endif]-->
in the section of my template, and Javascript is turned on in IE. It doesn't even work when I use the templates supplied with CMS. I don't really know how to troubleshoot this. How do I even tell whether IE is downloading the Javascript successfully?

Does CSSMenu work with IE5.2 Mac? If so, can anyone give me any suggestions of what to do?

Thanks,
Stephen

You may have to change it to

To check if it sees it... add this to the end of your urlĀ  modules/MenuManager/CSSMenu.js

IE/Mac has a different rendering engine than IE/Win and therefore conditional comments don't work there.

I know someone who is still using it, however, even Microsoft has seized development/support for it (as of January 31st 2006 - http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/i ... etexplorer) and you really shouldn't care about that one anymore. Whoever is using it should indeed switch to a different one now or live with not all websites being accessible for him/her.
