Awesome Joel! Love the new features. I got one quick suggestion, if you add -moz-opacity:.999; to your body style then my screen won't experience display issues with fadein/ fadeout. (FF2 on Mac) On Jul 10, 4:44 pm, Joel Birch [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Okay, so the drop shadows are not applied

Thanks for the nod Richard - it means a great deal to me that you like it. Thanks for the suggestion for the text-mode fix for FF2, also. I've moved to FF3 Mac and it seems my brain is keen to forget that annoyance. I've found an acceptable workaround to get the drop shadows working for IE7 too,

Okay, the IE7 fix has been released - Superfish is now v1.4.6 (couldn't be bothered saying 1.4.5.1). Richard, I found that adding -moz-opacity:.999 to the body of the documentation CSS (to fix FF2 Mac) caused the fade-ins not to work in FF3 Mac! They just popped straight to full opacity after

Hi Rick, thanks for the congrats. I checked your site in IE7 and this is what is happening: the pngs are solid black until the animation has fully faded in, then they switch to being transparent. This is the same problem I had with the drop shadows, although I thought it only occurred when the

Hi Joel Indeed this is quite a frustrating FF bug! Your fix has not solved the solution for FF2 Mac, I have to assume because you're checking for browser verion 1.9 .. ? On Jul 11, 2:16 pm, Joel Birch [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Okay, the IE7 fix has been released - Superfish is now v1.4.6

I was quite confused by why Firefox3 identifies itself as 1.9 via $.browser.version. Any idea what I should be checking for? Cheers Joel Birch.

Joel, Love the plugin, but it unfortunately isn't terrible accessible, particularly the non-Javascript enabled IE6 user. At work, we have to make our sites accessible to even this unfortunate user and have found it to be very difficult and nearly impossible to replicate the true

Hi Joe, I do appreciate your concern. However, when JS is not available in IE6, there is no way that a menu like this can be made to work as it does for modern browsers - at least not while using clean, semantic and valid mark-up. Therefore, if your accessibility needs require you to cater for
