Re: [WSG] CSS Drop down menu - Bugfix IE

2004-07-28 Thread Siteman DA - Bent Inge
Hi again and thanks for the replies from Nick and Phillipe!

The {whitespace: nowrap;} advice from Nick, sadly, didn't work. No
difference was displayed.

The code from Phillipe: li {float:left; width:100%; clear:both} however did
work :-) in some degree...
But it's a problem with that code as well. Now the subnav floats on top of
the entire menu and it's meant to appear just next to the 'subnavtrigger',
in this case 'ipsum'.
The existing code: li {position:relative; z-index:9 }does that, but with
that irritating whitespace in Explorer.
Is there a way of getting this code 2 work the same way in all browsers?

Most obliged,
Bent Inge @ www.siteman.no

 Have you tried {whitespace: nowrap;} on the offending ul?

Hi Bent,

 ...The menu is tested in Opera, Firefox and Netscape and in these browsers the
 menu seems to work as expected.
 IE, however, give me an unwanted gap when accessing sublevels. How do I
 solve that problem?

 Hope some of you wizards out there can help me out :-)


IE has a thing about whitespace around list items. Try removing it.
eg, ulli.../liul

Taa-daa.

What do you mean? Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a
good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good on this
morning; or that it is a morning to be good on? -Gandalf

li {float:left; width:100%; clear:both}. But this is better hidden from 
other browsers than IE win.

[WSG] CSS Drop down menu - Bugfix IE

2004-07-26 Thread Siteman DA - Bent Inge
Hello fellow members of the Web Standards Group!

I use a css drop down menu that works fantastic for most browsers, except
for Internet Explorer (off course).
The menu is tested in Opera, Firefox and Netscape and in these browsers the
menu seems to work as expected.
IE, however, give me an unwanted gap when accessing sublevels. How do I
solve that problem?

Hope some of you wizards out there can help me out :-)

The page is located here: http://www.regnskapsbyraet.no/sider/designmal.php
and the stylesheet is here: http://www.regnskapsbyraet.no/sider/global.css

The menu is based on the menu found at
http://www.naarvoren.nl/artikel/hover_cssmenu.html but is moderated some...

Code for the menu is found under the comment /* DROP DOWN MENY */ in the
CSS.

(The page is validated XHTML 1.0 Transitional and CSS2)

Best regards,

Bent Inge Høiås
