Thanks for your comments. The first entry in the thread stated the issue dealt with ASP NET 2.0. Subsequent entries had the same reference or it was implied. Apologize if I confused folks by abbreviating to ASP later on in the thread. Assumed all would be read and understood what stuff the issue was about. No need to pursue anything further and thanks for your assistance.... -
Thanks, your suggestion is a good one as that is probably what I should be doing. I'll snoop around also. Then, I will get back here if I find anything. I have since noticed on searches there are entries describing problems with Safari and the ASP menu control, but nothing states who really owns the problem, just efforts to fix. I apparently haven't been alone in this issue.
Thanks again....Leave a comment:

Thanks for your help. Recognize that, however if the page renders OK and validates OK elsewhere (other browsers), then what is the standard approach or is there one? Just experience to know where to shine the light?

Jared,
My thanks for your efforts and the explanation. However, even in this case the last test had a validated page by W3C but the code sent somehow goofed Safari.
I guess this stuff is still evolving and I've got a lot of learning to do. My thanks also to the contributor Plater who directed the solution and Banfa who made me aware of Browser Shots. That's a nice aid.
Until the next snake bites, cheers....Leave a comment:

That did it. Everything looks as expected now. It's mind boggling to have to put code in pages that have a menu control just for Safari. I'm too inexperienced to grasp the reason why this is the case. Not sure who is not compatible with who. Who owns responsibility for this kind of thing?
It seems to me, from a Newbie viewpoint, that this stuff has a long way to go to get sensible.
If someone wishes to point out the rationale for...Leave a comment:

The browser shots look good. Maybe a slight difference with the MAC screens. Next will put the code into my real pages with menu controls, and see what I can get.
Still don't fully comprehend why this is necessary for only Safari. Who really has responsibility for this issue, ASP, Safari, or ignorant me?
Thanks to all contributors on this for their expertise and patience thus far. Will post results.Leave a comment:

STANDBY. I moved the code for client target to page preint and it made a difference. Have submitted to browershots and am awaiting results to see if this clears up the whole matter or just another step forward.

Thanks, appreciate your comments. Wasn't being picky, just ignorant about what you said I'm unexperienced. However, what I did was set Page.ClientTarg et="uplevel" (alias for user agent mozilla,etc.) in the test page load event and then did some more testing. That made no difference. Tryed test with two menu controls, one with sub menu, one without. Both went to wrong position. Then, I tryed with just the menu with no submenu by itself....Leave a comment:

I'm not understanding this issue. Have no IIS, using VWD, ASP Net 2.0 only. MSDN says XHTMLConformanc e is Transistional by default. Current Web config omits any reference so it should be Transistional. The code sent to OS Firefox, IE browsers but not OS Safari checks out by W3C site as valid XHTML 1.0 Transistional. Why does ASP Net 2.0 server send different non-compliant code to the Safari browser? This was determined by contributor Jared. If the...Leave a comment:

Jared,
Again, thanks for your efforts. If ASP is the culprit here, which appears to be the case, then the only workaround in the ASP code is to not use submenu in the menu control. Maybe ASP folks will come up with something else. This stuff is perplexing and, in my view, this world needs much improvement. It shouldn't be this weird....Leave a comment:

Don't have a screenshot. The page the link references is a tiny do nothing page used to illustrate the problem. I isolated the problem and then created the page to show it in simple terms. If you have access to Firefox or IE or old Safari, it will render OK as a tiny item about mid page. It takes access by the new Safari to show how the one item menu gets repositioned. Don't know why and I don't know what the resolution is at this point....Leave a comment:

Thanks. I'm grateful for your efforts. This is my first web programming experience and it sure feels good to be able to have someone else looking over my shoulder. If this indeed is an issue which belongs to the new Safari, how does it get reported, etc?Leave a comment:

Folks,
I know I'm way over my head, however what I was pursuing bore fruit. I can create a very simple page which illustrates the problem. This validates OK with W3C and renders fine with Firefox but not the new Safari. It's simply a page with a one item menu which has a sub menu. It appears Class info is causing problem when there is a sub menu. The sub menu class info has an absolute position reference which is apparently driving...Leave a comment:

Jared,
Thanks for your asistance. Was able to resolve the simple page problem with your help.
Have downloaded and installed the latest Safari which the one MAC user had page problems with and I can now see the problems. Playing with one of the pages to see if I can see what the trigger is. Again the page is one that worked with Firefox(testing browser) and IE and the older Safari browser. This page passed with W3C as...Leave a comment:

Mary,
Thanks. Once before went through this. If it's too big as an attachment or reply you get a nebulus error message about needing a subject. I forget what the limit was but the page exceeds it. Unlike the W3C site you can't get it all in....Leave a comment:

Jared,
Thanks. Do you wish me to try and segment again with each segment reply having the edit reason you mentioned? I can't get it all in one reply it's too big.Leave a comment:

Jared,
Thanks for your efforts. Went back to W3C site and again pasted in the code being presented to Firefox which displays OK there, and I got this message:
This Page Is Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional!
I don't get it.
I must be out to lunch there as well. This page in question renders fine with Firefox and IE. This page renders badly with the Mac V3.0.4 Safari. The older Mac Safari's seem...Leave a comment:
