Thanks, I'm looking over some Suckerfish documents on A List Apart, and have found some JavaScript to fix IE's hover problem. Hope it works.

Thanks. Without your help I would not likely have seen the errors I did. Now I am still having some IE issues. My active tab, uses a background with a down-pointing arrow, similar to the tech republic web site. But It uses a suckerfish drop-down, and in their nonactive state the tabs that are hovered over should show their sub menu. I am getting nothing on hover in IE. Do you know of any known issues with hover states in IE? I am googling it...

I did solve my problem. I had not added a rule for the li item. An oversight, stupid noob mistake, I know. But I solved it. Thanks for your help. Below is my rule that I added. Thanks for the help.

Code:

.my_nav li{
	display: inline;
	list-style: none;
}

DrHowarddrfine,

I tried what you suggested. I removed the IE only block of code from the css. I also played around with the float and the positioning. I must be doing something wrong, since it only broke the navigation in Safari. When designing the menu I did do so for modern browsers. It works great in Safari, only a small error with the placement of the second tier on the hoverstate, and is totally broken in IE.

Ok, Drhowardfine, Im sorry for not taking care of that before hand. I have now validated both the css and the html. They both validate. However, I still have the display errors in Firefox, and IE.
Here is my validated HTML. I hope you are still willing to help.

Thanks

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Thanks for the reply. Here is the html. I have tried some conditional comments based on some things I have researched online today, but I've had no luck. Either i'm doing it wrong, or the examples I looked at don't really apply to my code.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dt d">

Actually, Nomad it has quite a few anchors. Have a look for yourself:

That's an interesting idea. Thanks for the suggestion. But is there a way automate it? The page I want is from the National Weather service here in America. I have tried using their XML feed, but it is too unreliable, and breaks my pages regularly. Is there anyway I can do this automatically? I would want it to update on a regular basis. I build my pages in html, but the backend is in lassoscript.

thanks guys, that helped alot.

I have my first tier done and looking good, the problem, I still have, and I checked on both of the links you guys provided and could not find an example of simple two tiered navigation without boxes, or gifs on the second teir. Below the html and css I have for the menu. I have pieced it together from different sources, which is probably why it doesn't work. I want the second teir to show on hover...

In a word, no. You can't turn a photo into a vectorized image without rotoscoping it and a bunch of other photoshop magic that is beyond me. bitmaps are different I think, but I do belive there is a bit of work there as well. You would be working in Adobe Illustrator to create the vectors not flash.
As far as the illustrations on your web page are concerned, try using the 9-slice scaling feature that fireworks cs3 has. I believe it was...

I'm not sure exactly what the problem is, but have you tried grabbing the borders of the movie while its still on the stage, and expanding it? Maybe that will bring it out past the off-stage artifacts you're seeing.

Also, you might try to check your publish settings.

Thanks everyone. I did work with this script and got things to work to my satisfaction. I did not get the 'one-click' solution, but I am happy. Thanks
