Background Image FF vs IE...

I have a menu __at__ http://cds-shelby.johnswidorski.com and It just does NOT work in IE... I don't know if it menu related or not.

Anybody have any thoughts?

Code:
<table width="800" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
   <tr valign="bottom">
      <td width="150"><a href="default.asp" ><img src="images/logo_top.png" border="0"></a></td>
      <td width="650" align="right">
         <table width="300" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
            <tr align="right"><td class="header_small"><a href="storelocator.asp">Store Locator</a></td><td class="header_small"><a href="contact.asp">Computer Configurator</a></td></tr>
            <tr><td><br style="line-height: 5px;" /></td></tr>
            <tr align="right"><td class="header_small"><a href="configurator.asp">Computer Configurator</a></td><td class="header_small"><a href="application.asp">Employment</a></td></tr>
            <tr><td><br style="line-height: 5px;" /></td></tr>
            <tr align="right"><td align="right"><img src="images/tools.gif" border="0" /></td><td bgcolor="#e3e3e3" >&nbsp;</td></tr>
         </table>
      </td>
   </tr>
   <tr height="40">
      <td width="150"><img src="images/logo_bottom.png" border="0"></a></td>
      <td width="650" align="left" height="40">
         <script type="text/javascript">
            with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu"))
            {
               alwaysvisible=1;
               orientation="horizontal";
               style=menuStyle;
               position="relative";
               aI("text=Home;url=default.asp");
               aI("showmenu=InStoreServices;text=In-Store Services;url=services_instore.asp;");
               aI("showmenu=OnSiteServices;text=On-Site Services;url=services_onsite.asp");
               aI("text=Product Listing;url=/shop;");
               aI("text=Web Design;url=webdesign.asp;");
               aI("text=Classes;url=classes.asp;");
               aI("text=Site Map;url=sitemap.asp;");
            }

            drawMenus();

         </td>
      </tr>

On a side note, the drop down does not appear to be working. I must be doing something stupid.

Thanks, John

First you need to update your menu code. You're running v5.792, current (required for help here in the forum) is v5.800.

Let us know how that goes.

Alright, I updated the code.

The image problem had to with the doc type, but the drop down is still now working.

Thanks in Advance, John

Hi,

There is an error in your menu_data file.

In the menuStyle it says
Code:
with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){


but in the subMenuStyle it doesn't have =new mm_style, it says
Code:
with(submenuStyle=new menuStyle()){


Correct that new menuStyle to new mm_style and everything works fine :)

Thanks for stepping in, Ruth. Sometimes the J.O.B. gets in the way of the forum... :roll:

Suggestion, js. Given today's modern browsers, you really need to apply a doctype to your pages. Based on how you're coding, I would suggest...
Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

You can see it working at http://www.west.asu.edu/sa/testsite/index.html.
