Hi all,
I did make a script/css thing to replace the contextmenu on the website with
a new one: http://www.djwice.com/contextmenu.html
It works nice in MSIE, but on Netscape (and probable other browsers) it
stays on the same place (does not "open'' where the mouse is). And the links
do not work when you click on them.
If anyone has sugestions on how to improve it, please let me know.
Thanks,
Wouter 46 7032

And now try to help me solve a problem that is not related with your mouse.
Help me make the code work; the stylesheet does not look equal in all
browsers. NN screws it up.
I just made it to test what's possible, you seem to love staying where you
are?

Which Netscape isn't it working in? It works fine in NN 7.1 and 6.23
(both WinXP).
The page doesn't even load in NN4.8 (hangs), but you weren't actually
expecting anything remotely fancy to work in that were you?
It doesn't work at all in Opera 7.23 (even when I set my preference to
allow JavaScript to access the right mouse click, which I normally
don't allow. Can any Opera users remember whether that's off or on by
default?)

Didn't see a thing. I use Opera :) Anyway, I did check in IE and
Mozilla ...
Looks nice, but I am also in the camp who things reimplementing the
browser interface is a bad idea. And why do you call it "more nice
looking"? I like the current menu, and it fits my theme.
And now try to help me solve a problem that is not related with your mouse. Help me make the code work; the stylesheet does not look equal in all browsers. NN screws it up.
As a bug report, "screws it up" is pretty useless. Which NN are we
talking about (I'm pretty sure it's not Netscape Navigator 4, because
it won't even load the page).
I don't see any serious difference between Mozilla and IE 6 (not one that
would fit "screws it up" at least).
It is optimistic to assume that two browsers show a page exactly
alike. For one thing, the font will probably be different, and IE is
known for its bad CSS implementation. So, if you have any particular
CSS problems, you need to say what it is (and it would be smarter to
ask in a CSS group ... which I only now notice that you do. When
you crosspost, remember to set the Followup-To header!!!)
The color you use for the background, lightgray, is not a standard
CSS color, and is not understood by IE
Neither allows me to pop the menu down again when it is up, except by
chosing an entry.
Don't use javascript :-URIs (like "javascript :win dow.print()"). Use
onclick attributes instead. <URL:http://jibbering.com/faq/#FAQ4_24>

Hi Steve,
Since this is a posting in more that one newsgroup I did fix a bit op for
NN.
So the problem now with NN is stylesheet related. I hope you can help:
The buttons do have 2 problems:
1) in MSIE the
<a href="link" style="width:15 0px;border:1px solid white;"><img
src="image.gif" height="16"> text</a>
works. E.g. the link is 150 pixels in width and has a border around the 16
pixels
height of the image.
Netscape (7) says:
I ignor the width:150px and I do not care how heigh the image is;
I just draw it around the image and the link text but at the text height
(12px).
: Which Netscape isn't it working in? It works fine in NN 7.1 and 6.23
: (both WinXP).
Thanks for testing NN 6.23, I did test it on 7.0 only.
: The page doesn't even load in NN4.8 (hangs), but you weren't actually
: expecting anything remotely fancy to work in that were you?
I do not use layers probable that's the problem, right? NN4.8 does not
handle div tags?
: It doesn't work at all in Opera 7.23 (even when I set my preference to
: allow JavaScript to access the right mouse click, which I normally
: don't allow. Can any Opera users remember whether that's off or on by
: default?)
Hmm.. I assume Opera did not implement the oncontextmenu event.
I need to know how to test if it's implemented or not, then I can handle
those who do not with right-click events.
I need to separate these because Netscape 7 (and maybe lower) gives a
trigger to the click-event at the same time to the oncontextmenu event, MSIE
makes the choice only to trigger the rightclick event when both are active.
Thanks for your reply and testing!

In Opera I get the default menu, thank goodness.
Don't know crap about scripting, but thought you'd appreciate a little
extra info.

Netscape is applying your styles correctly, IE is not.
You can not set the width property for inline elements, and the height
of an inline element is determined by the line-height property, not by
any images that it may contain. This is already well documented, see
for example: http://www.hut.fi/u/hsivonen/standar...l#lineboxmodel
Adding display: block to the styles for the <a> elements would be a
first step. Other values may need to be tweaked as a consequence.
: The page doesn't even load in NN4.8 (hangs), but you weren't actually : expecting anything remotely fancy to work in that were you?

NN4 handles div tags just fine. It just has a totally different
document object model and so you can't manipulate them, or anything
else for that matter, in the same way as more modern browsers.

Opera didn't throw up an error message, so I wouldn't bother changing
anything. Most Opera users are happy with the fact that their browser
is less open to interference like this. Leave them happy.

You assume all your visitors are mouse users? The browser's inbuilt
context menus are accessible via keyboard. Yours is not.
BTW, yours is not really a context menu at all, since the menu items
don't change depending on the element (link vs image vs text). Why
would someone prefer using this when the browser context menus are so
much more functional? You are only going to annoy your visitors, you know.

Having the "Disable this" text doesn't make it okay to toy with the user's
browser. What if I wanted to copy and paste? That's not even on your menu.
My menu was made to look good with my browser, not with your site.
