Hi Chris,
Sorry, I was looking in Firefox. I see now that the problem exists in
IE only. It might have something to do with the fact that the page is
running in quirks mode and that the markup is invalid. Try running it
through an HTML validator (e.g. http://validator.w3.org/). In
particular, you have two extra DOCTYPE declarations throughout the
page. And if you want to stick with HTML 4.01 transitional, replace
this ...
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
with this ...
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>
If cleaning up the HTML doesn't help, we can look at some other stuff.
In the meantime, I'll poke around the plugin code and the stylesheets
a bit to see how the positioning is being done.

You said it was positioning correctly for you? What version of IE
was that in? For me, in IE6 it shows up in the top left (0,0) of the
view port... it's supposed to show just below the top-level menu
choice.
Also, I know there are broken images. Ignore those and look mostly
at the ones that do have images. I'm still waiting on my graphic
artist guy to get me the rest of the images. I also don't see
anywhere (unless I'm just missing it) where the sub-menus are being
positioned. You can check out all the css if you have the Web
Developer extension for FF.
Thanks again,
Chris

It looked to me like it was being positioned correctly. Also looks
like you have a broken link to a rollover image for the top-level
nav items. I'm guessing that the sub-menus are using
position:absolute for their positioning, so you'll need to have a
parent element given position:relative in order for the submenus to
be positioned relative to those parent elements rather than the body
element.
Hope that helps.

Hi folks.
I'm having another problem with the jdMenu plug-in. In IE when I
hover over the top-level menu the sub-menu appears in the absolute
top left of the view-port! Bah! I don't know what I've done wrong.
I've used jdMenu at another client of mine, and it works great in
both FF and IE. This time around however, I *am* customizing the
css file quite a bit to better suit my needs.
The problem can be seen here.
This is causing me much aggravation, and more time at this one
particular client that I should really be spending.
I would *really* appreciate anyone's help on this problem. Of
course, I'll keep working on finding a solution, but if someone
knows what I'm going through, or can offer suggestions, that'd be
great.
Thanks,
Chris
