Mac IE submenu offset problems!!

Help!

This menu works great everywhere but on a MAC in Internet Explorer. The submenus are appearing approx. 100 pixels to the right of where they are supposed to be. I've tried everything!

http://www.continentalclay.com/default.aspx

The script in the head tags is as follows:

Code:

<head>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript src="milonic_src.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>   
<script   language=JavaScript>
if(ns4)_d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=mmenuns4.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");      
else _d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=mmenudom.js><\/scr"+"ipt>"); 
</script>
</head>

The script in the td is as follows:

Code:

<td height="18" align="left" background="images/navbg.gif">
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript src="menu_data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<script>
with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
style=menuStyle;
alwaysvisible=1;
orientation="horizontal";
position="relative"
aI("text=&nbsp;SUPPORT &nbsp;&nbsp;;showmenu=SUPPORT;");
aI("text=&nbsp;CUSTOMER SERVICE &nbsp;&nbsp;;showmenu=CUSTOMER;");
aI("text=&nbsp;CONTACT US &nbsp;&nbsp;;showmenu=CONTACT;");
aI("text=&nbsp;ABOUT US &nbsp;&nbsp;;showmenu=ABOUT;");
aI("text=&nbsp;SITE MAP &nbsp;&nbsp;;url=Sitemap.aspx;status=Site Map;");
aI("text=&nbsp;HOME &nbsp;&nbsp;;url=default.aspx;status=Back To Home Page;");
}
drawMenus();
</script></td>

Any help would be appreciated!!

Here is the code for my .js too, if that helps

Code:

_menuCloseDelay=500           // The time delay for menus to remain visible on mouse out
_menuOpenDelay=150            // The time delay before menus open on mouse over
_followSpeed=5                // Follow scrolling speed
_followRate=40                // Follow scrolling Rate
_subOffsetTop=10              // Sub menu top offset
_subOffsetLeft=-10            // Sub menu left offset
_scrollAmount=3               // Only needed for Netscape 4.x
_scrollDelay=20               // Only needed for Netcsape 4.x



with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
onbgcolor="#CCFFFF";

aI("text=T-SHIRTS, BAGS, ETC. ;url=Category.aspx?CategoryId=387;status=T-SHIRTS, BAGS, ETC.;");
}

drawMenus();

We're fighting exactly the same thing in http://www.milonic.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3221. So far, no answer.

The thing is, thanks for your empathy by the way

,
it should work. There is a table-bound menu from Milonic, and that one works a lot better than mine works (on a mac in ie). And I've combed over both codes and I can't find anything that is different.

uggh!!

Here is the link to the menu from milonic that works...

The submenus are called before mainmenu in

http://www.milonic.com/menusample.php?sampleid=9

So two drawMenus() calls

Perhaps you will get the problem in

Hope it helps

I don't understand -
Remove one of the draw menus commands? In the example from Milonic, both are there.

I will give it a try...

No you should not remove one of the drawmenu commands. It should work with two calls. That is the trick to get the menu to work in MAC IE.

First the submenus in the headsection and then mainmenu in the bodysection. That worked for me :-)
