Re: navigation menu problem

Fireworks does not design, it generates code - and and at times we want it to do things that the programmer did not take into account. Another byproduct of this code generation is that it is hard to decipher, that it overwrites its own instructions and more....

It would have been much easier to troubleshoot erroneous code written by an inept programmer.

In our case if you change the items marked in red

Code: Select all
 .MMMIVStyleMMMenu0314135538_0 {
/* This class determines the general characteristics of the menu items in menu MMMenu0314135538_0 */
    border-top:0px;
    border-left:1px solid #000000;
    border-bottom:1px solid #666666;
    border-right:1px solid #666666;
    width:112px;
    height:19px;
    voice-family: "\"}\"";
    voice-family:inherit;
    width:108px;
    height:20px;
}

#MMMenu0314135538_0_Item_0 {
/* Unique ID for item 0 of menu MMMenu0314135538_0 so we can set its position */
    left:0px;
    top:-7px;
}

#MMMenu0314135538_0_Item_1 {
/* Unique ID for item 1 of menu MMMenu0314135538_0 so we can set its position */
    left:0px;
    top:15px;
}

#MMMenu0314135538_0_Item_2 {
/* Unique ID for item 2 of menu MMMenu0314135538_0 so we can set its position */
    left:0px;
    top:36px;
}

#MMMenu0314135538_0_Item_3 {
/* Unique ID for item 3 of menu MMMenu0314135538_0 so we can set its position */
    left:0px;
    top:58px;
}
You will see an improvement when hovering over the WORKSHOPS area.
I say improvement - there has to be a lot of other work done on that menu and elsewhere.

My advise to you is to redo it completely - it will work faster and changes will be easier.
