Default pulldown menus look ok on pc but off on mac - 07-16-2004 , 01:20 PM






Using Dreamweaver MX2004. Used Behaviors>Show Pop Up Menu. Menus look good on
my PC but are off the X and Y axis by maybe 10 pixels or so. Example here:

Thanks so much!!

Can't see the problem on Safari 1.2.2. If it's another browser, let us know.

The default browser for OSX is now Safari. Is it off in Safari - or
perhaps just in IE5? For future questions it would help greatly if you
listed the exact browser(s) you are having difficulty with.

<sigh>Please read this carefully - http://apptools.com/rants/jsmenu.php

You probably don't want to use those menus.

Thanks. You saved me from booting my Mac :-)

Chances are the issue is one of body margins. For the type of
positioning that Macromedia's scripts use, you'll need to set bodt
margins explicitly on the body tag using older attributes.

<body topmargin=0 leftmargin=0>

It's invalid, but it will work

The problem occurs on IE5 on Mac OS 9.2.2.

I haven't checked the code to see how you're making the pop-up menus, but
using hidden layers and Project vii's layer snap extension would probably
fix this.
