Spry menu appearing different in IE Browser

Hi there my spry menu is messing up when viewed in the Internet Explorer Browser.  Everything appears fine when viewed in Firefox and Chrome, the URL is http://www.theboxinghistorian.com/
Here is a view of what it should be like and is when viewed in FireFox and Chrome
And this is the view in Internet Explorer (IE)
After several days of trial and error I deleted the whole script and associated CSS, however when i constructed another spry menu bar the same thing happened.
I then went of and set up a test site, entered a basic spry menu bar and it appeared fine when viewed in IE, basically I have tried everything, any help or feedback would be appreciated.

You have applied a width: auto; to the submenus. In some browsers, that is as good as saying "fill up my page horizontally with whatever you give me for submenus..." or something equally obnoxious, as you have seen!
In this rule:
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul
     margin: 0;
     padding: 0;
     list-style-type: none;
     font-size: 100%;
     z-index: 1020;
     cursor: default;
     width: auto;
     position: absolute;
     left: -1000em;
give a definite width (I suggest the same width that you gave the submenu items themselves, in this case 163px), and your submenu list items (which are made to float left, and will only stack up if they are in a confined space) should again fall where you want them.

  • Spry Menu Appears different in IE8 and IE7

    All,
    As most of the people who post on this site I am new to Dreamweaver CS4.  I think I've done a pretty good job and programming my site and my skills will only get better with time.  However I am having one issue that I have wrestled with all day.  The site I am creating is located at http://www.greenehazel.com/beta.   The spry menu looks fine if I access it with IE8, but when I access it in IE7 some of the rows appear on top of other rows etc.   I have fiddled with the CSS on this for most of the day and can't figure out why this is occuring.  I have attached the CSS below.   What am I doing wrong?  Any help is greatly appreciated in advance.

  • Spry menu appearing as solid block in Internet Explorer

    Hi!
    I have a similar problem as a previous post: my website's spry menu appears as a  solid white block where the links would be on the menu.  By mousing  over the block, I can see the links.  But I don't think the same answer  you provided here would apply for me.  I've looked at other sites and  could not find a clear answer either. I don't know what hack to add or  what to change.  I am very new to CSS and designing/publishing websites.
    Would you  be able to help me?
    the website link: www.artshigh25.org
    Thank you so  much!
    P.S. Thank you, Ben, for pointing me to right direction in terms of the forum.

    Hi,
    Change the following rule
    /* HACK FOR IE: to stabilize appearance of menu items; the slash in float is to keep IE 5.0 from parsing */
    @media screen, projection
       ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
            display: inline;
            f\loat: left;
            background: #FFF;
    to read

        ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
             display: inline;

    I hope this helps.

  • Spry Menu Bar - Different Background Image Wanted for menu items

    Hi, I've looked everywhere for help with this and just haven't found any answers yet ...
    I want my Dreamweaver CS5.5 menu to look like this design I've done in PhotoShop ...
    It's a simple one level list with no sub-levels.
    Everything is good, except I can only set one background image for all the menu items at this level.
    I want the first, last, and all the middle, menu items to use different background images.
    I have no idea where or how to insert the code to set a different background image for each individual menu item ...
    I know I could use images set one on top another in a column with rollover image swop, but the spry menu opens the door for dynamic content so I'm keen to get it working.
    Manchester city council has a great example of this style of menu design working at - http://www.manchester.gov.uk/
    They've got funky indenting of the text as well.
    ~~~~~~
    This is the code for my menu list ...
      <div class="sidebar1">
        <ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarVertical">
          <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">News</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Groups</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Events</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
             <li><a href="#">Help</a></li>
        </ul>
      </div>
    This is how I set the background image (but I can only define one image) ...
    I set the image background to "Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg" through ...
    CSS Styles
    SpryMenuBarVertical.css
    ul.MenuBarVertical a
    I then select the background category
    and browse to the image file.
    doing this changes my CSS code as follows ...
    ul.MenuBarVertical li
        padding: 0;
        list-style-type: none;
        font-size: 100%;
        position: relative;
        text-align: left;
        cursor: pointer;
        width: 170px;
        margin-top: 4px;
        margin-bottom: 4px;
        background: url(/Images/Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg);
    ul.MenuBarVertical ul
        padding: 0;
        list-style-type: none;
        font-size: 100%;
        position: absolute;
        z-index: 1020;
        cursor: default;
        width: 170px;
        left: -1000em;
        top: 0;
        margin-right: 0;
        margin-bottom: 0;
        margin-left: 95%;
        background: url(/Images/Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg);
    ul.MenuBarVertical a
        display: block;
        cursor: pointer;
        padding: 0.5em 0.75em;
        color: #0000;
        text-decoration: none;
        font: normal 12px Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
        background: #EEE url(/Images/Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg);
    ~~~~~~
    These are the three images I want to apply to the top middle and bottom menu items :
    Top menu item background image - "Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg"
    Middle menu items background image - "Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Mid-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg"
    Bottom menu item background image - "Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Bot-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg"
    ~~~~~~
    As I am unable to set the menu items individually, this is how the menu looks like on my website at the moment ...
    ~~~~~~
    So near yet so far ! I'm hapy with the verdana font, the image size and spacing, but the background images I just can't set them right.
    I'd really appreciate any help on this as I'm out of ideas.
    Thank you.

    The easiest way is to use pseudo elements.
    To style the first and last menu items ifferently to the rest, merely add :first-child and :last-child respectivly as follows
    <!DOCTYPE HTML>
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Untitled Document</title>
    <script src="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <link href="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarVertical.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    <style>
    ul.MenuBarVertical li:first-child a {
        background-color: red;
        color: white;
    ul.MenuBarVertical li:last-child a {
        background-color: green;
        color: yellow;
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarVertical">
      <li><a href="#">Item 1</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Item 2</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Item 3</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Item 4</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Item 5</a></li>
    </ul>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var MenuBar1 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar1", {imgDown:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif", imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
    </script>
    </body>
    </html>
    In your case, in liue of the background colour, you would have an image.

    You will have to update your spry code (do not know how (possibly in editing the css), but it is causing the problem).
    If you have CS3 or 4, you can use the spry updater extension from -

  • Horizontal Spry Menu appears as bullet point list in IE8 and below - fine in firefox, chrome and IE9

    This one is breaking my brain! I have an horizontal spry menu bar in my website that renders correctly in all browsers except ie 8 and below where it appears like an unordered list - almost like no CSS had been applied at all. You can check out the site here http://www.webhance.com.au. The spry css looks like this:

    Hi Gramps - thanks for getting back to me - I took advantage of your advice to others with some other issues I had and they worked a charm so I was really hoping to hear from you :-)
    Unfortunately removing media="only screen and (min-width: 769px) from the css call didn't resolve the problem.  Check it out on my index page www.webhance.com.au/index.html Any other ideas?

  • Spry Menu code patch for IE browser?

    Does anyone remember the Adobe e-blast with the coding patch that was suppose to fix spry menu issues with IE browser? Now that I need it, I can not find it anywhere.

    Hi PBSOakley,
    You've  posted your question in a forum for BrowserLab, a web service for  cross-browser testing of web pages. I think you'll have much better luck  if you repost your question in the Spry forums here:http://forums.adobe.com/community/labs/spry

  • Horizontal Spry Menu and Header Collapse in Browser

    If you look at this webpage in anything other than IE (specifically Safari), the header and spry menu are kind of collapsed into about a 600px frame, as opposed to the designated 800px area. Any thoughts on why this is happening? It looks fine in IE however... hmmm
    Thanks

  • Horizontal spry menu floats around differently in FF and IE

    Hi there !!
    I would like to ask you about the following:
    When I use a horizontal spry menu and have it adjusted for FireFox, I get a result I can live with.
    Except that the submenu's under the heading 'cultuur' and 'projekt' do not slide down altogether, but are horizontal as well...
    How can I fix it so that they are positioned under its 'parent' ??
    But that's my minor question, actually...
    When I open my site in Internet Explorer (7 & 8) the spry menu looks different; it is far more stretched. First it also floated left, but I managed to fix that. The major problem is that the submenu's appear on the left of the page. I can't get them under their respective parents at all.
    Can you please help me with that?
    My site:
    www.mnette.nl
    (if you need more info, I'm glad to provide it )

    When I use the original SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css, your page behaves extremely well. I realise that you wish to customise the menu to suit your site, but these modifications are to be made under strict rules so that the cross browser functionality is not compromised.
    Have a look at the following 10 commandments http://dwcourse.com/dreamweaver/ten-commandments-spry-menubars.php#one
    May I suggest that you ressurrect the original style sheet and work your way from there making sure that you keep to the above commandments.
    If you still have problems, please come back here for further assistance.

  • Spry menu Bar I.E. positioning issues?

    Hi,
    I, like many folks I've seen on various forums have the same problem with my spry menu appearing at the top of I.E browsers instead of under the menu bar. I've tried all sorts of fixes that I've found and have updated to the latest version of Spry. I am using CS3. Could anyone please, please help?

  • Spry menu

    Hi, i am trying to implement 2 things:
    - to realize more than 3 horizontal menu's with different
    stylesheet on 1 page, i get stuck with the second one
    - it is not possible to place 2 anchors in 1 <li> eg.
    <li><a href="modify.html"><img
    src="modify.gif"</a><a
    href="go.html">go</a></li> or is this possible?
    Seems that horizontal menu is somehow a copy from Interakt's
    Css Menu's based upon Prototype-framework or do I see it wrong?
    Thanks for the advice/solution?

    Hello kosmonaut,
    I will try to answer your questions one by one.
    1. You'll have to copy the CSS file you need (for horizontal
    or vertical layout ) under 2 different names. For each new created
    file you'll have to rename the main class MenuBarVertical or
    MenuBarHorizontal everywhere in the CSS with a new name of your
    choice. (myMenuVertical1).
    In the page you'll have to follow the same method of adding a
    menu in your page, as you did with your first menu, but you'll have
    to include the corresponding new CSS. In the HTML markup instead of
    setting the main menu class to the MenuVarVertical or
    MenuBarHorizontal you'll have to put the new CSS class name you
    changed in the corresponding file.
    2. No, is not possible to have multiple links in the same
    menu entry. The way the Menu widget was designed will consider the
    <a> element as a menu entry. In the case you use multiple
    links on the same Menu element you'll probably hit some undesired
    behaviors.
    3. Accidentally the menu design resemble the CSS Menus 2 from
    InterAKT. But this is just a coincidence, both companies working on
    their menus almost in the same time not knowing about the other one
    existence. The Adobe menu is lighter in functionalities than the
    InterAKT menu and is not based on the prototype. We aimed with the
    Spry Menu a different target audience and even if there are some
    resemblances, which probably means that this is a good design
    approach, the menus are different.
    Regards,
    Cristian

  • Spry menu doesn't appear in Yahoo! browser

    I built a spry menu into my website in dreamweaver. I then
    used the 'Check Page' function, and have checked it myself within
    Safari and Internet Explorer and the page seems to work fine. I
    have since found out though, that when accessing the website
    through BT's Yahoo! browser the menu doesn't show, meaning that
    visitors to my website only see the homepage. Does anybody know how
    I can rectify this problem, since this browser is not listed within
    the 'Check Page' function.
    If you wish to see the menu, the website is
    www.christopher-perkins.com
    The menu should appear down the left hand side.
    Thanks.

    open your spry script file and locate this line:
    this.createIframeLayer(menu);
    Place 2 slashes in from to comment it out, like this:
    //this.createIframeLayer(menu);
    Then go here and deploy the wmode parameter for your flash

    Hi guys..
    I created a spry menu bar in DW CS4. It looks fine in Firefox but in IE 8, the background image of the navigation bar appears white after allowing activecontrol to run. I didn't include any image for ul.MenuBarHorizontal a because I wanted to use the background image for the div containing the navigation bar.(Hope I didn't confuse you there).. I tried using the search box but couldn't find any solution to my problem. Here are my screen shots.
    This is in firefox.
    This is in IE 8 before allowing activex.

    I still can't find a solution. Changing the parameter wmode:transparent works for .swf files but .flv files do not have the option to add this parameter. If you add it in the script manually it doesn't do anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I cn't find any solution online.
    Thanks,
    Adam
