:D
I have people reporting misc. menu problems (not showing up or images squished together).

The site is http://www.spartanspeedway.com.

I just upgraded to 3.5.15 but still the same problems reported.

Before you take the time to check out the stite, can you point me to any faqs that might deal with this? Perhaps I have some bad code inserted somewhere.

Thanks,

Doug

I had similar problems, I found that I had to add  the text

& n b s p

(don't leave spaces between each letter) after your text. This puts in valuable spaces needed to pad out the width.

First off, move your script calls from the <head> to first thing after the <body>.

Next - UPGRADE :!: You are way down-level. 3.5.15 is current, and you are at... never mind. Your code is current, just your comment is down-level :roll:

Hi Doug,

the squished together part is an easy one... You are using images in your menu. The squished effect seems to occur only in IE; the menu renders before the images are fully cached. If you set the width attribute inside each <img> tag to the actual width of the image, then the browser will know exactly how much space to reserve for each image and you won't get squished images.

As for the not showing up part, John's suggestion to move the <script> tags out of the head and into the body will usually take care of that, particularly if the offending browser is Opera.

Hope that helps,

Kevin

Doug -

Sorry my response from yesterday was so abrupt. "Pressing matters" here at work took me away from the Forum, and I wasn't able to dig further into your code.

Besides, I knew Kevin would find it!
