[css-d] Line Height IE7 problem with PVII TMM
I did ask this question over at the PVII forum, but I haven't heard back, so I thought I'd ask in here. http://www.waterfrontvenuesnewcastle.com.au/new/ I'm just having my first ever run at using TreeMenu Magic (I've used many of the other products) and I have one issue. The first 5 items all have sub-menus. In Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari for Windows, the spacing between all 7 top level menu items is the same (as it should be). In IE7, the first 4 have a larger gap underneath. I have no idea why and I'm assuming since IE7 wasn't even thought of when this was designed that there was a tweak out there to fix it. I looked on the website but couldn't find it. I would also like to know where in the css I change the line height so all the top level menu items have a larger space between them. (I know how to set line height - line-height: 200%; I just don't know where in the css it should go.

I actually downloaded your page and set about translating the P7M div-heavy code into a more semantic assembly, but I got winded. ;) The P7M menus on your page use obtrusive, inline event handlers and an antiquated div based source. I would strongly suggest getting away from any kind of product like that. It's just doesn't fit in today's internet. If you'd like some help re-writing the menu into a more semantic, less obtrusive setup, please let me know off-list and I'll be happy to help with some HTML, CSS and JS re-coding for you.

Re: [css-d] Line Height IE7 problem with PVII TMM
hi, for gaps in between, i noticed that all with sub levels has big gap try removing all line-height and font-size settings and see if it would remove uneven gaps. #p7TMnav div -- for top level #p7TMnav div div -- for sub level when you set top level div, it would also set sub level so be sure to set sub level preferred line height consider using lists instead of divs for menus. good luck. virgil http://www.jampmark.com On Wed, Jan 7, 2009 at 7:12 PM, Jo w...@sparrowdog.com wrote: I did ask this question over at the PVII forum, but I haven't heard back, so I thought I'd ask in here. http://www.waterfrontvenuesnewcastle.com.au/new/ I'm just having my first ever run at using TreeMenu Magic (I've used many of the other products) and I have one issue.

Thanks for the offer Bill, but we've been around since 1998 and have a very good handle on things. I can't disagree with your underlying points, but it does work :-) Tree Menu Magic (original release 2001) will soon be upgraded to a more modern codebase. Prototype here: http://www.projectseven.com/products/menusystems/tmm2/folders/ We are a fairly large operation and have to work by a schedule.

I know you guys have been around forever and I know how arduous updating projects can be. We've exchanged emails before; I hope you know I wasn't trying to disparage your work. From our previous exchanges, I know you agree about semantic code. Good luck on the new version -- it looks great.
