Menu 'detaches' when not at top of page

[golfnut]

We have built a website using MM1.1. As long as we are at the top of the page
the submenu functions properly (dropping down from the main menu). But, when we
scroll down a bit, the submenu starts opening ABOVE the menu and above so much
that there is a gap and you can't get the mouse to the submenu before it
disappears.

Feel free to look at the site we're testing:

The browser must be small enough (800x600) to create a scroll bar. If you're
using a higher resolution view:

You have a Div inside a div which is confusing the heck out of your browser. Just center the bar in the cell with <td colspan="2" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" align=center> and get rid of <div align="center"> and </div>

Thanks John but, I atually only found one set of DIVs. I removed them and put your code in and that didn't solve the problem...

hi golfnut,

could you try one more thing? Could you change the following code from this;

<script menumaker>document.write('<scr'+'ipt src="xaramenu.js">'+'</scr'+'ipt>');document.write('<scr'+'ipt src="nav.js">'+'</scr'+'ipt>');/*img src="nav.gif" moduleid="chamber_02 (project)\nav_off.xws"*/</script>

To This;

<script menumaker>document.write('<scr'+'ipt src="xaramenu.js">'+'</scr'+'ipt>')</script>
<script menumaker>document.write('<scr'+'ipt src="nav.js">'+'</scr'+'ipt>')</script>

or better yet to this;

<script src="xaramenu.js"></script><script src="nav.js"></script>

[golfnut]

Did that...

No luck

okay golfnut,

here is one more thing to try. could you name your links...

a:link {color: #432C5F;}

a.test1:link {color: #432C5F;}

etc, see if that can fix this. Your submenus are relative for some reason. And it is a real bear to find out what is goofing them up. CSS are hard to Troubleshoot unless you write all of them.

[golfnut]

That doesn't appear to have done it...

[John Rayner]

Hmmm... We are stuck going through both the file and both .js line per line. I did notice one thing that just might help. Count your <table and </table> tags. It appears you are shy 1 </table> tag.

[golfnut]

Balanced the <table>s...

I have attached the nav.js created by MM1.1
I can only attach one attachment at a time. If you need the xara js let me know...

sorry golfnut,

Have not had time to play with it much. I would suggest copying the parts of the page, piece by piece to a new file, and see where the trouble pops up. That would be easiest. I didn't see anythig that looked "wrong" in the code when I last looked.

I would start witha bunch of Cariage returns and the calls to the menu script. Then build from there...
