Another NS 7.1 oddity

Using this code when moving the mouse over menu items and expecting sub-menus to drop down or pop-out depending on orientation only every other menu works. Clicking on the in between menu gets it to open and changes which ones do and don't. Does not happen in IE.

I have tried dropping the close and open delays to 1, removed the fade in the over Filter and eliminated the outFilter completely to no avail.

_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=5 // Sub menu top offset
_subOffsetLeft=-10 // Sub menu left offset
var showText = true;
var showTB = true;
