Hello all,
I have a problem with an horizontal menu which is managed using HTML/CSS
combination.
All sounds right in most of the major Windows's browsers (not tried
until now under Linux, will do after), but not using Netscape, Mozilla
(not the FireFox one) and Opera.
I've made a test page in which you can see the CSS code, snapshots in
every tested browsers and my observations at the bottom. http://yohannl.tripod.com/menutest/index.html
Do you have an idea about the reason why it's wrong with these three
browsers and what to do ? 4  2400

They're old and senile? :)
Mozilla 1.6, Netscape 7 and Opera 7 are dinosaurs now. I suspect you
could count the number of people still using those versions on one hand.
and what to do ?
I'd do nothing, except get some more up-to-date versions for testing.
A more recent Seamonkey works just fine, as does Netscape 7.2. I
wouldn't bother with any Opera release before 8.x, and even that's
questionable.
It's usually not worth the trouble of catering to ancient browsers. If
anyone is still using them, it's unlikely your page is the first one
they've come across that does something odd.

I agree with you, but I've some "no-software oriented" visitors (if you
see what I mean) who use them... So, difficult to push then toward newer
versions unless if I do the install myself on their computer :(
Well, technically, do you think it's because of misinterpretati on of
these old browsers or because of a lack in my CSS/HTML ?

Well, after my yesterday reply, I've tried to test further this morning
(knowing my own station is under Windows 2K):
- Netscape 7.1 : not tested yet because their live install has some
difficult to download what necessary (maybe the week-end effect).
- Mozilla : not updated yet.
- Opera 9.26 : the result is worse than with the previous release I used
(the 7.23)... Just see http://yohannl.tripod.com/menutest/index.html ;
I've updated the page at the bottom.

Well first off, use HTML 4.01 strict then your pseudo|invalid xhtml as
to not trigger quirks mode.
Next UL is a block element so no need for the DIV and let's remove all
the other superfluous elements.
If you are just adjusting one css property like background-color, don't
use the shortcut "background " it does more that you realize...
My method here doesn't toggle display but moves the absolutely
positioned block element in and out of the viewport so it does not
effect the flow of the page as toggling the display property of an element.
This works in IE5 to 7, FF and Opera up to version 8.x (9 seems to have
issues... but Opera still having trouble breaking 1-2% and maybe they
will fix it...)
OK; thnaks for this detailled replyu, Jonathan. I'm not at work just
now, but will see your way deeper at beginning of the week.

Hi,
I am trying to get a dynamic table going. You click a button to add a
row. In the newly created row a button to delete the row is placed
(try the code example below). In Netscape, pressing the delete row
button crashes the browser. Why ? What is the correct way to do this ?
I am stumped why this following code works in IE and Opera but crashes
Netscape 7 (ie makes it disappear and try to send a bug report etc).

Hi there, after reading posts here for a few months, I've built the
courage to see if someone can see where I"m going wrong in the webpage
I've been working on.
In particular the horizontal nav bar accross the top of the page.
viewd here http://foundations.port5.com/currprojects/babylon.html
I am running win XP and have tested in both Avant (MSIE) and Opera
7.23
the result is a different problem in each.

I have a menu, part of which I've recreated here:
http://www.btinternet.com/~kingsway5/test.html
It works perfectly well in Firefox 0.8 and Netscape, and initially displays
fine in IE, but when you go over the links with the mouse, IE aligns the
lower items ('A Level' to 'Reasons...') to the left edge of the page, and
removes the spacing at the top above 'home'.
Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have found some menu functions. It works quite well, but how can I
replace it with a simple <a href> if javascript is turned off?
I reduced my code to:
<script>IncludeMenuHere()</script>
More, any tips about "fading" the menu item in and out (x-browser)?
Currently it's using DIVs and this.items.visibility(false);

Can anyone explain this to me? It's driving me insane.
Save this and run it in IE or Opera and then in Mozilla or Netscape 6+.
In IE/Opera, I get the expected 4 alerts.
In Mozilla/Netscape, I get *9*.
In the example table, there are 4 rows with 4 columns each in the tbody.
I'd expect 4 child nodes for the table body with 4 children each. I get
those 4 plus 5 alerts in Mozilla/Netscape. I get only
those 4 in IE and Opera. Note that...

Hi all,
I am using an open source menu that i found and it works great, except
for one thing that when the web page is not scrolled to the very top
the drop down links will not stay visible. Has anyone else had this
sort of problem with javascript? and any ideas how to fix it would be
greatly appreciated..
I have included a copy of the code below, thanks.

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
