    menu problem

    Hello all,

    I have been wracking my brain over this issue for hours and think I have
    determined that it isn't a java issue with the menu, but rather an issue
    with the CSS of the element that contains it but I am not positive. Has
    anyone ever seen a menu split like this before? When you run the cursor
    over the menu items, the submenu is all the way across the screen! And
    even better yet...if you have seen it, do you remember what you did to
    fix it??

    My brain and my exhausted eyes will be ever so grateful. Thank you for
    taking the time to look.

    It is a CSS problem, most likely.

    Yes, I've had similar problems. I fixed the CSS to solve the problem. I
    try to minimize the amount of HTML and CSS I use so that that's usually
    pretty easy. Unfortunately, your HTML code is so full of CSS and tables
    that it hurts my brain to look at it.

    I looked, and I didn't like it.
    You can probably get rid of 80% of the HTML if you put your actual
    styles in an actual CSS file instead of putting everything into hard to
    debug inline style attributes. You are probably using some kind of
    WYSIWYG HTML generator tool. Get rid of it and start again.

    Good luck.

      Re: menu problem

      Actually, I'm not sure you are looking at my site because there isn't a
      single table in it...and the bulk of the text toward the bottom is just
      paragraph text I threw in there to extend the content to create the
      scroll bar in the content element.
      There is a CSS menu setup left in the css file in case I decide to drop
      this java menu...that's all that should be there that would be
      considered. There are actually NO embedded styles, they are ALL in the
      css file. I'm not sure what you're looking at.
      Thanks

          Oh I see, I think - that script you're using is inserting all kinds of
          table crap.

            Hello all,
            I have been wracking my brain over this issue for hours and think I have
            determined that it isn't a java issue with the menu, but rather an issue
            That menu is totally invisible if javascript is disabled. Not just unusable,
            simply not there.

            If you believe the current statistics/guesses this is like turning your
            server off for one or two months each year :-)
