problem with css/javascript drop down menu

[ultimate0]

I've been trying to find the perfect css/javascript drop down menu (something that will work with nearly everyone). After about 5 hours of searching and editing, I've got one up and running but I have a problem with it in FF. Works fine in IE but in FF you'll notice when you hover over the drop down and reach lower once it hovers over my <div> (with overflow) it will disappear. This is extremely frusterating... any help would be appreciated.

Why have one that relies on js when you can do the whole thing with css?

Look here: http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listamat...rizontal04.htm

FF only uses the css I believe. The javascript is there for IE because I read that it has problems with css drop down menus...
I dunno - the whole thing is frusterating

I know it's frustrating, believe me. It's not true about FF only though, those menus work in IE.

I tried both CSS menu that herkalees linked to in IE 6 the first doesn't work but the second does.

This is a curious topic anyone know why CSS menu aren't fully supported in IE?

its problems with the :hover attribute...

basicly, IE only will allow this on particluar things, like links...in <ul> it gets confused...

Thanks for the info benbramz, one more thing for me to remember when I write my codes and try to make 'em cross-browser...

[benbramz]

cross browser code is a pain in the neck. if IE wasnt around it would be much more simple..but nm eh!

Agreed!
