Macintosh Compatibility Problem

My websites that use the menu are:
http://www.snia-dmf.org
http://www.enterpriseinformationworld.com

One of my users is having problems with the menu. It is not working on his system. The following is the information he gave me about his system.

Safari 1.3.2 (v312.5) on Mac OS X.3.9 (build 7.9.

.

According to the website the menu should be compatible with his system. What else could be causing the problem? Is there a solution?

Thank you.

Hi,

It may be that you have the menu in a div, it is not recommended that you do that.

Your site layout is such that you can get the exact same thing by putting it in a table.

Table menus require that you take the main menu out of the menu_data.js file. The embedded_main.js file for the first page would be

Code:

with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
alwaysvisible=1;
position="relative";
orientation="horizontal";
style=menuStyle;
aI("text=DMF Home;url=http://www.snia-dmf.org/index.shtml;showmenu=Home;");
aI("showmenu=News;text=News;");
aI("showmenu=Events;text=Events;");
aI("showmenu=Membership;text=Membership;");
aI("showmenu=Resources;text=Resources;");
aI("showmenu=DMFPrograms;text=DMF Programs;");
}
drawMenus();

The following would be the table and codes for the pages as you posted the links.

Code:

<BODY><!-- This 1x1 table puts a box around the entire page -->
 <script type="text/javascript" src="/includes/milonic_src.js"></script>
     
      <script type="text/javascript">
        <!--
           if(ns4) {
             _d.write("<scr"+"ipt type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"/includes/mmenuns4.js\"><\/scr"+"ipt>");   
           } else {
             _d.write("<scr"+"ipt type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"/includes/mmenudom.js\"><\/scr"+"ipt>"); 
           }
         -->
      </script>
      <script type="text/javascript" src="/includes/menu_data.js"></script>

<TABLE style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" borderColor=#111111 cellSpacing=0

Try this and see if it will work for the person. If not, we need a more detailed description of what the problem is.

Below my name is a link for doing table menus.

Hope this helps.
