Hi,

We currently use Milonic Version 5.13 and now I just updated the script to Version 5.728...

We also have a license for it.... but the problem is that now all the select box displays in front of the menu

Did any one had this issue.. also tried to change the zindex property in the menustyle...

In our select box we have the zindex set as 140.. but if i take the zindex style off from the select box then it works fine.. and we already have many pages in which the zindex is already set.. and it use to work perfectly with version 5.13

Can any one plz help if u need more info. let me know.

cheers
Chintan

I'm guessing you are seeing this with Firefox or Netscape 7/8?

If so, what you need to do is add the parameter fixMozillaZIndex=true; to the top of your menu_data.js file.

Hope this helps,
Andy

No its not FireFox Its MSIE

Adding fixMozillaZIndex=true; to the top of your data file should fix the problem.

If it still occurs though, let us have a URL so that I can see if there is anything else at fault.

Cheers,
Andy

Still the Select box appears in front of the menu

Thanks for your reply andy...

As per your suggestion.. i tried adding fixMozillaZIndex=true; but didnt help...

and also been to the sample http://www.milonic.com/menusample14.php...

In that page you hide the div tag using divhider.js...

You can just try my problem using the above menusample14.

Here is the sample code as on the web site:

<div id=formdiv1 name=formdiv1 style="position:relative">

<form>
<select>
<option>Testing to see
<option>if the menu will
<option>sit on top of
<option>select boxes
</select>

<select>
<option>Testing to see
<option>if the menu will
<option>sit on top of
<option>select boxes
</select>

</form>

</div>


and if you replace the code with this :

<form>
<select style="Z-INDEX:140; LEFT: 400px; POSITION: absolute;">
<option>Testing to see
<option>if the menu will
<option>sit on top of
<option>select boxes
</select>

<select>
<option>Testing to see
<option>if the menu will
<option>sit on top of
<option>select boxes
</select>

</form>


and take off the div tags... shouldnt it wor??.. or you can set the zindex of the menu more then 134 ???

What do you say... do i need to add the <div tag in all the pages????
and also add the divhider.js script?


Andy one more question....
