strange problem with frames + firefox [SOLVED]

Hi everybody,

On my web site ( http://www.l2wh.com ) which is framed, the menus works perfectly under IE
But with firefox, they seems working, but when you play with menus for more than 10 seconds
you'll notice that menus disapear very often as if the mouse has left the menu (and of course it is not the case)

Example: try to catch the item: "tools->Shops tools->mammon shop" 10 times in a row
You'll notice that its very hard to do as very often, the menu vanish without reason.

Any idea is welcome .

Best regards,

Salim

Hi,

I did get the problem to occur but after opening the submenu the second time I couldn't get it to repeat. As a check, try removing the margin=7 in the submenus and see if that fixes the issue.

Removing the margin seems to fix the problem .

You're welcome.

If you'd like to keep the look you had, you can get something similar. In your sub menu style set padding="6 13 6 13"; then add

separatorwidth="80%";
separatoralign="center";

That should set your right and left wider and with the separator set at a smaller % and aligned center it will not go into the right and left padding area. You'd have to experiment with this.

You could also try setting the margin smaller than 7, say 3 or so, that might not be enough to cause the mouse to think it was off the menu that first time.
