Help with horizontal menu

Halo
If someone could help, please!
I'm having a bit of trouble with the spryHorizontal menu. In IE (I'm using 9) the submenu's overlape the main menus. In Safari/Chrome the submenus are next to each other. And on Opera/Firefox the submenu....well do not know how to explain so here is some pics:
This is IE9
This is Chrome/Safari
And this is FireFox/Opera
Here is my SpryCss:
@charset "UTF-8";

(I also have some problems with my footer, but will open a new post for that later)
Thank You

Hi Gramps
Thank you for replying.
I did try that solution previously, but gave it another go. It did not work, so I thought maybe I should try it on a dummy page. It works on FireFox/Opera/Chrome/Safari but not in IE.

Help with Horizontal Menu Bar in IE

I am having trouble with my menu bar in IE. It works fine in Opera, Firefox, and Safari. In IE when you hover over it it opens on the left hand side and not straight down. I have tried many things others have suggested with no luck. I am not very good with code and this is the first website I have worked on as part of my job (wasn't hired on as a web designer! I work on a horse farm!). Here is the link to the site www.garnercreekfarms.com.
Here is my JS:

SpryMenuBar.js
This file handles the JavaScript for Spry Menu Bar. You should have no need
to edit this file. Some highlights of the MenuBar object is that timers are
used to keep submenus from showing up until the user has hovered over the parent
menu item for some time, as well as a timer for when they leave a submenu to keep
showing that submenu until the timer fires.

Alyssa,
Have you tried putting this rule back as it was originally:
/* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to auto so it comes onto the screen below its parent menu item */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
    left: auto; /*was 9px*/
    color: #EF9CCF;
    background-color: #FFF;
That is, changing your 9px back to auto.
And giving us a link (as you did) is much better than printing out the code for us! Thanks!
Beth

Need help with Spry Menu Bar

Hello, I have two templates that I am using. Both have a horizontal menu bar across the top of the page and then two Vertical Spry Menu Bars down the left hand side of the page - one above the other. On one template, all menu bars are working correctly. On the other template, 2 out of three are working correctly. Not sure what's happening here. The spry menu bar that is not working correctly is under "Books & Materials" heading. The menu bar is supposed to turn green when you mouse over it, but instead everything turns white and looks like it "disappears". I have no idea why it would work on one template and not the other. Or for that matter, why it is working on one vertical spry menu bar, but not the other on the same page. Can anyone help me?   www.springerlejoy.com/proanimals4.html This is a page that shows where it is not working. Basically, all of the products pages are having this problem. If you go to the home page: www.springerlejoy.com you will see that this page is working - using a different template. Can anyone help me? I'm at a loss! Thanks!
Debbie

HELP WITH SPRY MENU BAR!!!

I there,
I'm a newbbie and I'm just learning DW with tutorials and try/error while I make my Cinematographer website. I've been fighting all aspects of DW that are relevant to my site, and I'm having serious trouble formatting the Spry Horizontal Menu Bar.
My last "f***up" has been the following: I already had a pretty decent Menu Bar, but the submenus where a little too low under the parent button. I was trying to lower the space between them items, and I've f***ed up. Not only I haven't been able to make it happen, but now the submenus show all the time, instead of being hidden. This is my MAIN thing here.
Now, if you feel liek helping all the way, I also need to place those SUBMENUs closer to the PARENT button. They seem to be in a "box" that I can't modify.
And if you REALLY want to help even more! I want to set a border to the buttons on the submenu, a thin black border without affecting the upper PARENT button.
How does it sound?? I would REALLY REALLY REALLY appreciate your help, I'm lost!!!
This is still not on-line, so I can't give the URL, but...

THANKS VERY MUCH FOR READING!!!!
Hermes

Hermes, the most useful thing for us to see will be the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css file. The answers will be in your code.
Short of that, if you create a new site and a new page with an unaltered version of the menubar css stylesheet, compare that stylesheet with the one you have edited on your own page. Working carefully from top to bottom and looking at the differences, you might be able to pinpoint the problems. As you will see, the stylesheet is carefully commented, and a careful reading will reveal much to you about how the styles are applied.
One reason submenus might show all the time is if you have altered the style rule that places the submenus at a position of left: -1000em; That is a technique for 'hiding' the submenus way off to the left of the viewport until the Javascript calls them back on when you hover over the main menus. If you have altered any part of that rule, look at it carefully and replace your edits with original code.
Submenus are actually list items in unordered lists. If you can position the top of the unordered list higher, you will shift those submenus higher.
In order to style submenus but not the main menu items, you will style rules whose selectors begin like this:
ul.SpryMenuBarHorizontal ul
That means, the unordered list that is inside the unordered list whose class is "SpryMenuBarHorizontal".
To put rules around submenu items, style the borders of
ul.SpryMenuBarHorizontal ul li

well, i need to know how i can link each option with an URL
and the target is in other frame
Please help me!!!!

hi
still i am not sure what do u want to achieve?
if u wanna create u r own toolbar then try something like this, but while creating buttons then u have to use codes too.
There is an easier way to get the "toolbar" you want to have.
1. Build a mmb with all the functions you want to have both in the menu and in the toolbar.
2. For each menuitem, you can define in the properties
- If it should be shown in the menu, then set "Visible In Menu" to Yes
- If it should be shon in the horizontal toolbar (or vertical toolbar), then set "Visible In Horizontal Menu Toolbar" ("Visible In Vertical Menu Toolbar") to Yes
- For showing an item in a toolbar, you will have to set the property "Icon Name" additionally to the name of an existing icon (the same way you do for buttons)
3. Compile and generate the menu
4. Build a form and attach your menu as Menu-Module in the properties of the form.sarah

Need help with Pop Menu Magic I

I'm working on a site, you can see the index page here: http://www.graphicedgepro.com/gcw/index.html
What I'm attempting to do is have the horizontal menu be in a table cell that has a background and you can see through the menu buttons. I got this to work, but I need the buttons to be centered in the table cell. Right now they they start on the left side.
Is there a way to center the menu bar?
I have Pop Menu Magic II, and I downloaded the update (1.4.9) but when I try to get the menu bar into the cell, it causes the background image to repeat and there is too much space above and below the actual manu bar. I know I can set this version of this extension to center the menu, but if I cannot get it to look like the Pop Menu Magic I I'm using now, it's not going to help. I tried just putting the menu in using Cayenne as the color scheme so it would be easier to find the CSS code that I would need to change. I do not know if I mess with the CSS if I can get the bar to set into the cell the way I need it. I'm just not sure what to do to get this to be right.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Help With Scrolling Menu / Button Rollovers

First thank you to anyone who can answer and help with this
question.
http://paragon.sortismarketing.com
- at this link I have created a site with a simple scrolling menu.
Now what I want to happen is when you rollOver the buttons on the
scrolling menu they get larger and then smaller again after you
roll off them.
I know how to do this with tweening in a non moving
environment, by making them a movie clip instead of button. But for
some reason when I did this in this case it screwed the menu all up
and made it go crazy. Is there a way to do this with action script
that isn't going to screw up the underlying code for the
scrolling?

You can use the below code also. As your mouse pointer goes
over the down, it will scroll down.
on(rollOver){
scrolltext.scroll -= 1;

Help with Spry Menu - stopped working

Dear Forum,
I used a Spry Horizonatal Bar menu successfully in a site I
am building. After I modified it to suit my needs it was working
fine (changed colors, font, variable width box, modified hacks for
IE6) until I did some code cleaning to achieve WC3 validation. I
had to change many things in the code, but as far as I am aware
nothing was even remotely tied to the menu. After several passages
I realized with horror that the menu (still there) are not working
anymore. The pull down does not work. I attach the link of the test
site here:
site
Is anyone able to tell me what's not ok in it. I must point
out that senpai.js do not exists; should i remove that lin of code
(I am wondering if it does create a conflict - I removed it but to
no effect, then decided to put it back so I can show you the site
as it is).
I would appreciate any help, I am not expert, this is my
first site and I am sure I am doing something silly; if I just knew
what it is! I am getting mad trying to progress with this. Now I
have valid code, with a menu not working! Not too good as you can
see.
Help, ideas anyone?
Thanks in advance!

syavar: Brilliant!
I'm on Windows 7 64bit and this Pages panel stuff was driving me nuts: thumbnails at the far right, snapping shut panel when attempting to resize, no scroll bar, blank panel, everything poopy. I tried all the standard deviations: uninstall/reinstall, new workspace, Ctrl+Shift+Alt on startup, delete files manually, and only ocassionally did the Pages panel work as expected, then it would almost immediately revert to bad stuff.
Your solution worked like a charm, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart...<G>

Each button displays the same text with html tacked on as the button except for the Home page of course. What should the text be?

Almost there! Need a little help with CSS Menu

Hi folks,
I am almost there with a menu system. The problems I discovered were mostly to do with layout.css nav elements interfering with my custom code. http://bendannie2.businesscatalyst.com/flexi2.html
Here are the problems I can't seem to resolve.
There appears a red diamond list element and I can't seem to remove it or find it in the Inspector on any css link
the secondary menus blink and are hard to select on hover over tertiary menus (see On Sale>Cartier> )
the tertiary menus are a little crowded towards the secondary menus.
the css classes in inspector seem to repeat ad infinitum
Any help most deeply appreciated...
BTW, it works better on a smart phone!
Jeff

Thanks, Don't know why I didn't see that...
I'm stil having a problem with the hover area for selecting sub menus... The problem appears to be the js, I think!, I'm not qualified to analyze jquery.
The behaviors are as follows:
The On Sale submenus stay active even when you roll off that menu and select another.
The hover area after the first scrollover appears to be below the existing text of the top level and not on the text itself.
there is something going on as you scroll down through the submenus where they are blinking on and off as you pass each sub tab... This uses jQuery 1.7.2, so if that has been fixed in a later edition, I don't know...
Perhaps it is the way I set the CSS but I didn't, to my knowledge, change a hover/selection area for the menus...
TIA,
JEff

Help with spry menu

HI guys, very good forum! I am new to web design..
I am trying to build a web but i can not figure out how can get the menu button stay in diferent colour when is clicked and page changed.
I will give you examples
http://www.slugandlettuce.co.uk/
Let say i inserted a spry menu bar horizontal and designed it how i like. What rule would i need to add to get buttons to stay the diferent colour when they are clicked/selected. Could you please help me wth that?
Thank you very much.
Roman

The way to make the button for the current page a different colour is to add an ID to the link, and create a separate style rule for it. For example, the following menu uses "here" as the ID to indicate the current page:
<ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal">
<li><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#" id="here">Item 1</a>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">Item 1.1</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Item 1.2</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Item 1.3</a></li>
    </ul>
</li>
<li><a href="#">Item 2</a></li>
<li><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#">Item 3</a>
    <ul>
      <li><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#">Item 3.1</a>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="#">Item 3.1.1</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Item 3.1.2</a></li>
        </ul>
      </li>
      <li><a href="#">Item 3.2</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Item 3.3</a></li>
    </ul>
</li>
<li><a href="#">Item 4</a></li>
</ul>
With the following rule in the style sheet, the first item is a rusty brown:
#here {
background-color:#C60;
