There's no quick solution.
The idea of an API is that all browser differences are handled by the API,
so widgets can be coded without worrying about different browsers.
NS6 support has only recently been added to the API, and this browser has
some annoying problems which haven't been fully solved yet.
I think the menu widget isn't showing at the correct height because of a
problem with getContentHeight() in NS6.
Of course, it would be possible to get the menu working for NS6, by
hardcoding the height of the nodes, but then you surpass the whole point of
the API if you adapt each widget for every new browser.
Once all major problems with NS6 have been solved in the API, most widgets
should work without problems.
