Menu is Duplicated when put into a Table Cell


Poster: gtb05ag

Hello,

I am new to this menu and hope this is a quick fix. I have inserted my menu into a table cell, and attempted to precisely follow the directions in order to do so correctly. However, there seems to be the menu I desire (in the specified table cell) and a hovering menu of identical properties. Not sure why it is doing this.

Here is my embedded_main_menu javascript code:
Code:
    with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
alwaysvisible=1;
style=menuStyle;
position="relative";
aI("text=Home;");
aI("text=Job Opportunities;");
aI("text=Employee Sign-in;");
aI("showmenu=About;text=About Team U-Staff;");
aI("text=Contact Us;");
aI("text=In Case of Emergency;");
aI("text=FAQ;");
}
drawMenus();


Here is my menu_data javascript code
Code:
fixMozillaZIndex=true; //Fixes Z-Index problem  with Mozilla browsers but causes odd scrolling problem, toggle to see if it helps
_menuCloseDelay=500;
_menuOpenDelay=150;
_subOffsetTop=10;
_subOffsetLeft=-10;

with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
bordercolor="#000000";
borderstyle="solid";
borderwidth=1;
fontfamily="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial";
fontsize="75%";
fontstyle="normal";
headerbgcolor="#ffffff";
headercolor="#000000";
offbgcolor="#f5f5f5";
offcolor="#000000";
onbgcolor="#cccccc";
oncolor="#ffffff";
outfilter="randomdissolve(duration=0.3)";
overfilter="Fade(duration=0.2);Alpha(opacity=90);Shadow(color=#777777', Direction=135, Strength=5)";
padding=5;
pagebgcolor="#ffffff";
pagecolor="white";
separatorcolor="#000000";
separatorsize=1;
subimage="arrow.gif";
subimagepadding=2;
}


with(milonic=new menuname("Job")){
style=menuStyle;
}

with(milonic=new menuname("Employee")){
style=menuStyle;
}

with(milonic=new menuname("About")){
style=menuStyle;
aI("text=Operations;url=http://www.a-q.co.uk/;");
aI("text=Administrative;url=http://www.sms2email.com/;");
}

with(milonic=new menuname("Contact")){
style=menuStyle;
}

with(milonic=new menuname("In")){
style=menuStyle;
}

with(milonic=new menuname("FAQ")){
style=menuStyle;
}

drawMenus();



And here is my html code
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>U-Staff LLC | Home</title>

Hi,

It sounds as if you didn't replace your original menu data file with the new one that had the main menu removed from it. But, without the page that's only a guess. What you posted is correct, the main menu removed from the menu_data file and in it's own file.

Once again you come through. I have been looking through the other topics of discussion and noticed that you are awesome at fixing the problems we novices pose. thank you for your timely response. You were correct in your diagnosis, even though I could have sworn I looked at that file a million times to make sure I had cut out the redundant portion of the main menu. Again, a million thanks :)
