Hi,

I have a few questions regarding Milonic Menu & Netscape 4.x -

My test page is:
http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/m-menu.html

1. I can't get my menu border to display in Netscape 4.x - borderwidth is set to 1.

2. By using the following code, I have been able to acheive a fixed menu width of 750 px - but in Netscape 4.x the menu is short by two pixels -- (I believe this is attributable to border width)

with(mainStyle=new mm_style()){
onbgcolor="#FFFF99";
oncolor="#000000";
offbgcolor="#FFCC66";
offcolor="#000000";
bordercolor="#999999";
borderstyle="solid";
borderwidth=1;
separatorcolor="#999999";
separatorsize="1";
padding=0;
fontsize="12px";
fontstyle="normal";
fontfamily="Arial, Verdana, Tahoma";
pagecolor="black";
pagebgcolor="#FFFF99";
headercolor="#000000";
headerbgcolor="#ffffff";
overfilter="Fade(duration=0.2);Alpha(opacity=95);";
outfilter="randomdissolve(duration=0.3)";
}

with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
style=mainStyle;
alwaysvisible=1;
orientation="horizontal";
align="center";
itemwidth="82";
position="relative";
hidediv="hide"
aI("text=About Us;url=http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/aboutus/index.html;status=About Us;showmenu=About;itemheight=20;");
aI("text=Academics;url=http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/academics/index.html;status=Academics;showmenu=Academics;itemheight=20;");
aI("text=Admissions;url=http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/admissions/index.html;status=Admissions;showmenu=Admissions;itemheight=20;");
aI("text=Alumni;url=http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/alumni/index.html;status=Alumni;itemheight=20;");
aI("text=Faculty/Staff;url=http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/faculty/index.html;status=Faculty/Staff;showmenu=Faculty;itemheight=20;itemwidth=83;");
aI("text=Students;url=http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/students/index.html;status=Students;showmenu=Students;itemheight=20;");
aI("text=Search;url=http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/search/index.html;status=Search;itemheight=20;");
aI("text=Site Map;url=http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/sitemap/index.html;status=Site Map;itemheight=20;");
aI("text=Home;url=http://www.citytech.cuny.edu/m-menu3.html;status=Home;itemheight=20;itemwidth=83;");
}
drawMenus();

3. Milonic Menu seems to make the page take a long time to load in Netscape 4.x Is this true for other people?

4. About absolute URLs - In the above example I define the entire absolute URL - is there an alternative way to code absolute URLS - the forward slash doesn't work for me...

Thank you all!
