Default CSS differences in Explorer and firefox - 07-02-2006 , 07:54 PM






http://www.captivationstudios.com/menutest1.html

Well its working! (er well at least I thought it was!) Silly me I checked this
the whole time with Mozilla and Opera, within which of course it works
perfectly with, I then went to check it with Explorer and hey presto its not
doing what it is supposed to do!

I guess this could well be a general problem (checking it with Explorer 6), it
could also be that I have done something very stupid in the construction, does
anyone know of a way to remedy this situation?

Thanks

What's it supposed to be doing? You've said nothing about the problem you're
having with it. From just looking at the page in Firefox and IE - I see no
difference, they both display the menu when hovered over.

What problem are you having? You need to explain yourself a bit more to get
any help.

HTH, take care.

Sorry that I was not clearer. The drop down menu in the Explorer version (or at
least the version of explorer that I am using Explorer 6) the menu instead of
dropping down from the text "menu" it appears higher up.

If you could let me know if your browser is doing the same?

Yes. That's true. But what's the point of having the items appear on mouse
over?
Why not just have them all be there to start with?

Its part of the design. We want to have a plain white space with the menu only
appearing when required.

We would also like it if possible to look the same in Explorer as that is by
far the most popular browser, so I am a little confused why it is jumping up in
Explorer and not in Opera or Mozilla?

Any ideas out there?

Thanks

You need to vertical align your table row to the top. Add the following
rule to your style sheet:
#wrapper #caplogo tr {
vertical-align:top;
}

Thats excellent, it now works in Explorer and Opera. I don't have Safari here
to check that, however, it now jumps around in Mozilla. Is this something I
will just have to live with or is there something else that can be done? If
there is it would be great. Thanks alot

Mark
