I haven't examined the javascript at all, but a few things come to mind: 1. You could likely make the css/javascript simpler by nesting the sub-navigation inside the main nav. It would also allow keeping the active state on the top level li. Something like this. <ul> <li onmouseover="subabout();" ><a href="/about/">About Us</a> <ul id="sub-about"> <li><a href="/about/">Approach</a></li> <li><a href="/about/management.html">Management</a></li> <li><a href="/about/investors.html">Investors</a></li> <li><a href="/about/board.html">Board of Directors</a></li> </ul> </li> ... and the rest 2. You might want to consider moving the nodrop() function to the mouseout event of the subnav instead. 3. If the #flash div is to eventually contain a flash object, be aware that ie considers it a 'windowed control' (like an iframe) which will show through all that is above it. I vaguely recall that you have to export the flash in 'windowless' mode, but I'm not a flash expert so you'll want to double-check that. Since javascript questions are off-topic for this list, if you want more detailed help, you can contact me directly. -- Roger Roelofs "Remember, if you’re headed in the wrong direction, God allows U-turns!" ~Allison Gappa Bottke ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
