Thanks to all who have replied. My case for asking the question was
based on my experimentation with the page at
http://www.gazingus.org/html/menuDropdown.html
You will see the page works as it should in Opera 7 here but...
I then took the code and altered the positioning of the menu as can be
seen at http://www.bangor.ac.uk/~absc04/dropdown/dropdown2.html to
allow room for a logo and banner etc.
Seems to work very well in IE, NS etc (as I previously mentioned)
except in Opera 7 - take a look, its doing some strange things - hence
my idea to switch off the CSS (unfortuanately) and provide a text
version.
The problem is not with the CSS. The problem is with the JavaScript,
Opera has difficulties with properties such as offsetWidth.
I would look around for another dropdown menu script. There are lots
of them out there and some of them work well in a wide range of
browsers, including Opera. The one you have at the moment is odd, to
make any of menus appear at first I need to click on one of the links,
but after that all the menus appear when I mouseover the links.
