AllWebMenu and Firefox

[thompa]

Hi there,
In thread770-1173689 there was mention of a problem between an AllWebMenu and how it appears in Firefox and IE.
The author wrote to say that he had found a solution but he didn't give details..

Does anyone have a solution?

See page

in IE and Firefox 2 to view the problem.

Thanks in anticipation.

Hi there,

Thanks for replying.

Well, I seem to have a fix.. but not absolutely sure why...

I read somewhere that putting '<|' before:-
<DO NOT MOVE! The following AllWebMenus code must always be placed right AFTER the BODY tag-->
and after
<!-- ******** END ALLWEBMENUS CODE FOR nkmenu ******** -->
... but this didn't work!

What seemed to work was making sure that there was only one line between these statements... ie. no spaces between the occurrences of </script> and <script>.

it is a comment...
comments are formulated as:

<!-- hello world -->

Note the opening tag < ! (less, exclamation)
spaces between script tag should not matter.
Above all...fancy js menues are not so "hot" any more lol.
All the best!

Well,

Of course, you are correct.. Fancy JS menus do lead to troubles....

But the thing is with this one, putting:-
<script>whatever</script>
<script>whatever</script>

does produce different results to:-
<script>whatever</script><script>whatever</script>

Very strange.... and too clever by half!

Well..I don't know my man...this should not make any difference in the world of code, you might wanna hit up the company for the explanation. It is almost like saying your car runs better when washer fluid is 1/2 full...
Not sure but if this is a paied product but I would ask.

Btw using layers, timelines and css you can make just about any type of custom fly-out menu using native MM_code and DW gui....it may have some 2-3kb of JS overhead but nothing that I would worry about.

At the end of the day...nice job getting it to work!
