Horizontal Spry submenus not dropping
I created a horizontal spry menu for this site just as I have always done. but the dropdown submenus are not working. I have tried commenting out other "functional" pieces of code. I even put a spry meny into a blank document and uploaded it. I cannot figure out what I've done wrong. Any help would be great.

<h2>Layout</h2>
<p>Since this is a one-column layout, the .content is not floated. </p>
<h3>Logo Replacement</h3>
<p>An image placeholder was used in this layout in the .header where you'll likely want to place a logo. It is recommended that you remove the placeholder and replace it with your own linked logo. </p>
<p> Be aware that if you use the Property inspector to navigate to your logo image using the SRC field (instead of removing and replacing the placeholder), you should remove the inline background and display properties. These inline styles are only used to make the logo placeholder show up in browsers for demonstration purposes. </p>
<p>To remove the inline styles, make sure your CSS Styles panel is set to Current. Select the image, and in the Properties pane of the CSS Styles panel, right click and delete the display and background properties. (Of course, you can always go directly into the code and delete the inline styles from the image or placeholder there.)</p>

Thanks for your help.
It is not even on my local files. I would have thought that Dreamweaver would have created that in my local files. I can copy it over from one of my other sites.
1. Do you have any idea why it would not have been created?
2. What would be a way to resolve this if I didn't have this file on some of my other sites?
3. How did you determin that the file was not found on the server. I haven't seen any errors with any of the tools that I've used to analyse the site.

Horizontal submenus not dropping down correctly in IE7
Hello, I am hoping somebody can help.
I have a vertical and a horizontal menu bar in my page - the vertical seems to be ok; but the horizontal menubar has submenus and they do not drop down correctly from the menu bar in IE7. They work fine in Firefox.
In my site for net newbies, this submenu is supposed to drop down from the main menu, not appear from the top of the browser.. any ideas?
Thanks for any help

Spry submenus not working while Included with SSI
I have customized and created my horizontal spry menu bar with the help of some tutorials on here, and I have pasted it onto a page without any html, head, or body tags. I have linked to the CSS files and javascript files in both the page being included and the page containing the include. But the Spry submenus wont work on the page with the include on it. But they work on the page being included.
I tried only referencing the javascript file with the page containing the include, and vice versa to no avail. Again, everything else works except the expansion of the submenus.
I am new to all of this, I only know what I have learned from doing tutorials and reading forums on this fabulous website. Has anyone encountered this problem or have a remedy? Thanks in advance.I'm confused. The submenus in the spry menu on the included page work when I don't reference the external style sheets or the javascript in the page containing the include. Based on the explanation given by David Powers on this thread about how to use SSI with Spry, I thought all pages had to include the link to the javscript and style sheets:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSEE4C0148-A6F4-4bf5-9DEF-CE06AB026214a .html
Problem solved? Or if anyone has an actual explanation for this, I will leave this question unanswered.
Sorry to be so quick to post... -
SPRY menu not dropping down on certain pages
I'm having a lot of problems now that I've uploaded this webpage. I created this webpage in Dreamweaver and used the SPRY menu template and everything worked perfectly in Dreamweaver but now that I have uploaded it I can not use the drop downs on like 7 pages. When you are on the shop page, the dinning page, Living, Directions, Design, Events, and the contact page the SPRY menu will not drop down. Could someone look at my site and perhaps my code and tell me what I am doing wrong on those pages?
http://discoverclearfield.com/shop.html
http://discoverclearfield.com/dining.html
there are a couple of the pages that don't work.
Thanks so much.Have a look here and come back after you have fixed the markup http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fdiscoverclearfield.com%2Fshop.htm l

Spry Submenus Not Visible on RHS only
My spry submenus work totally fine except for the very far
right hand side of the page where the submenus are cut off. I can
see the very beginning of the submenu but the rest of it with the
text is hidden once it goes past the edge of the page. Clicking on
the small part which is visible works, but users still need to see
the entire submenu. This is a problem only in Firefox (3.0.7) and
Safari (3.1.2). IE7 works fine where the submenus on the RHS are
clearly visible as I hover and they extend past the right hand edge
of the page. Thanks for any input.I could see it on Safari.. it has a Beatles poster on the Home page and then others on the other pages...
Some flucky things happen with these browsers.
Peace,

CS6 Spry navigation submenus not dropping down in iPad or smartphone.
My submenus are revealing correctly when hovering over and clicking through on a desktop (Safari, Chrome, Firefox and IE8). When I try to navigate on a iPad or iPhone the submenus will not reveal even if I resize the screen. Any advice? Thanks in advance.
Spry is no longer being developed or supported by Adobe. You would be better off in the long run if you switched to jQuery (javascript) or CSS for your menus.
That being said, the reason why it doesn't work on handheld touch devices is because they don't have mice. Since there is no mouse pointer on handhelds, any script that relies on them fails. A javascript onmouseenter or onmouseover or a css :hover won't do anything on an iPad, iPhone or host of other touch only devices because there is no mouse pointer to fire the function connected to them.
You will need to rethink your menu systems for touch devices and use css :focus or javascript onclick events so the menu appears when the parent element is tapped.
The best way to go, in my opinion, would be to create an all css menu system, then use Media Queries based on device resolutions to control if the menu uses :hover for a desktop or :focus for a handheld to fire the submenus. That way your menu would open when a mouse enters the parent button on a desktop and when tapped on a handheld.
There are really a lot of different ways to go though. Doing a search on jQuery Accordion menus or css accordion menus will bring up a ton of examples and most will have a tutorial on how to implement them, plus you have the added bonus of being able to check their demos out on an iphone before downloading them to ensure they function the way you like. -
Horizontal Spry submenus error in IE6
I have searched every horizontal menu post on this forum for
this answer. I have also edited every line in the CSS to see if it
was causing this problem. I don't know enough CSS to think up my
own CSS but have attempted some new things. My site is live and
getting about 300 visitors a day. About 60% of them are still using
IE6 so they are seeing my embarrassing disaster. I desperately need
help.
I designed and debugged my spry menu for Firefox and IE7.
But they are not working on IE6. My horizontal menu at

Thanks so much! AnnHi,
Sorry because I can't understand very well English and
perhaps I will answer something that ... you know...
But I tried your code, all like you have on your web, but
adding the "BROWSER HACKS: the hacks below should not be changed
unless you are an expert", and it works on IE6, IE7, FF2. Yes,
without that, on IE6, the page breaks.
You only need to add the last fragment that I understand you
have deleted. It works without any other modification on css. You
can update your version 1.4 to 1.6 too.
I hope that I have understood all well. -
Spry Dropdowns not dropping over SWF in Firefox (Windows)
Greetings again-
I built a Spry drop down menu in Dreamweaver CS3 (on my Mac). The drop down menu resides just above a flash banner. In Firefox (v3.5.9), the dropdowns won't drop over (won't overlap in front of) the Flash SWF file. However, the drop down menu drops properly over the Flash file in IE (Windows), Safari, and Firefox on Mac. Anyone know of a fix for this bug?
Thank you-Mark BXD wrote:
I found a solution over at Layers Magazine:
" (in Dreamweaver) Please select your flash object and go to the properties panel, select Parameters button, and add following lines:
wmode as parameter and transparent as value"
This solves the problem.

Spry menu not dropping straight now in IE
!!SORRY FOR ALL OF THE CODE I AM NOT SURE WHAT YOU NEED TO

Hello,
I am new to web design with CS4. My spry menu looks find in
Firefox and Google Chrome, but not in IE. The menus should drop
down like this in Chrome (

Tell me what code you need to see and I will post it.
Thanks!I will answer the extending the menu question first since
that is the easiest. You can either increase the width of the
menubar items or you can just change the background color for the
layer behind the menu so that it is the same color.
For the menu, there are a couple things it could be. Without
seeing your pages, it could be an issue with the Spry version. If
your Spry code is not up to date then this is the starting point.
You can tell the version by looking at the top of either the js or
css file for the Spry. Then check this page (
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/
). The updater isn't all that intelligent so it won't check the
previous version.
Then if you are using the most up to date version we come to
the code which would need to be shown. We would need to see any CSS
code related to the menubar layer (the Spry CSS file) and any other
CSS code you have for surrounding divs. It would also help to post
the HTML for the menubar area so we can see how the CSS styles are
used. -
Spry Menu not dropping down in Firefox and Chrome
Hi -
I am not a professional and having difficulty. I have inserted a spry menu bar in CS5 and it looks fine in IE, but doesn't drop down (can see a little bit) in firefox and chrome.
I read a bunch and tried a fix to make the overflow visible, that fixed the problem but my formatting of locations of other areas went wild.
The site is: http://www.tucsonrealpros.com
.....any help is much appreciated...been pulling hair outHi,
I have tried the site and can see the drop down for Home search, Buyers.
Can you try to update the chrome and firefox.
Thanks and regards

DW CS4 Horizontal Spry drop down menu not displaying correctly in Internet Explorer 8
Hi,
I have created a horizontal Spry drop down menu in Dreamweaver CS4 with my own background images. I have done various modifications to the CSS script to accommodate the style and feel needed; including making the main buttons' height twice the size of the sub menu buttons and some alignments. It seems to work different depending which browser is used.
It works well in Google Chrome.
It works well in Firefox with the exception that if any of the buttons are clicked, thereafter a thin black line is diplayed horizontally across center of the top main buttons when the mouse rolls over them. I would like to correct this but is not nearly as bad as the problem I'm having in Internet Explorer 8.
Here is my biggest concern and I would greatly appreciate if anyone can shed some light on this matter.
Once opened in Internet Explorer 8 the main navigation buttons appear as they should. IE8 prompts me the following: "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX controls that could access your computer. Click here for options..". Once I allow IE8 to run scripts or ActiveX controls, the background image disappears and only shows on any menu or submenu button when the mouse rolls over that particular button. Can someone please help.
The menu can be seen at work by clicking on this link:

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.

Jose H.Hello Nancy,
I was troubleshooting For the next 8 hours after my post here and eventually I got it right, I uploaded the files to the test server and at the time did not have the chance to post the solution here. This is why, as you saw, it is working correctly now. Both the CSS and HTML files needed modifications. While working on the code I had to run IE8, Chrome and Firefox simultaneously and refresh all three after every change in the code because what would fix the problem in one would cause a problem for the other.
In addition to the problems listed in my original post, there were also other graphical issues in IE8, such as; the main menu buttons without sub-menus would only display at half their size vertically. The border around the buttons would not display despite that the background images were rendered in Photoshop as flattened JPEGs with boarders as part of the background image. Being so, I removed all borders from the CSS script.
By the way.. the IE8 security measure did pop up while working from the server.
Anyhow for those of you who are experiencing similar problems you can take a look at the working code bellow and compare it to the initial code. I've included detail comments on every line I have changed, modified or added.
Good luck.. as I know it can become a complicated task when creating custom Spry menus.

Spry dropdown menu not dropping down and reversing order cs4
Hi, thank you for reading my post.
I am having problems with my spry menu bar not dropping down when
I upload it to my site, I get bulleted lists. When I preview it, it works fine. Also, the menu is in reverse order (??) I've tried retyping it in the opposite order to see if that fixes it, but somehow it goes back to backwards. It should start with home at the left. I am trying to post my code, but it will not let me paste. How do I paste code? Sorry if thats a silly question.
Thank youHi, thank you for your replies. I set everything to left, which caused it to display correctly in dreamweaver. Thank you! I did enjoy the "wiggle" that I get from the menu items on hover, they move from right to left, will that cause problems if I change one back to right? I still am having trouble getting the menu bar to show on the website, Im still getting bullets.
How do I put the css files? They might be on the site, but not in the right place, where should they be? I also made another site from the same template, and saved it to a folder in my site so it can be previewed. Will that cause problems? Both spry's are not working..... argh! Thank you to everyone for your help, I appreciate it, this is my first time using the spry menu feature. Thank you for the help on posting code. Here is a link to the site and the code:

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.

Spry horizontal menu's not displaying right in IE9
Presently I'm using Dreamweaver CS4. I have built a web site and placed a horizontal spry menu at the top of the web page. It is situated on the page just below a smaller non-spry horizontal menu. In IE9, the menu appears above and to the right of this smaller menu rather than in the location I want it to appear. What's more, in Dreamweaver the menu seems to float the upper right of the screen (I've attached a screen shot). When I review the web site in IE 7, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and Safari, the menu is correctly placed.
Can anyone help solve this issue? When I view the web page in IE9 and put it into IE7 mode, all is well. Not so in IE9 (or IE8 for that matter).
I'd appreciate direct email as well as answering it here to help others with my quandry. My direct email address: [email protected].
Thank you!
This image shows you where the menu appears in Dreamweaver AND in IE9
This image shows you where the menu correctly displays in IE 7 (standard mode), Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari.
The smaller navigation you see "Subscribe to Alerts" etc is controlled by the following code:
#secondarynav {
width: 475px;
margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
padding: 0px;
float: right;
/* height:20px; */
The entire page including these menus sits in a container (My Code):
#container {
width: 930px;
height:800px; /* changed from 775px */
margin: 0 auto;
border:1pt solid #c7a9a9;
background-color: #FFFFFF; /* added by WDM, 6/5/2012 to keep container white while page body is gray */

top: 0;I'm not sure where you attached files (I have not seen a way to do that in the Forum), But I will try to speak generally and work with what you have posted.
My suspicion is that the negative top margin you have applied is messing things up a bit.
I also note that it is usually better to apply margins to a CONTAINER of an unordered list (which is what menus are made of), than to apply the margins to the ul itself. So, restore the margin: 0; to the ul.MenuBarHorizontal style selector and create an enclosing element that bears the margin:-45px 0px 0px 200px; though I would still reconsider the use of negative top margin.
It is entirely possible that this simple change will help.
Please post the HTML for the top of the <body> section, including the menu code.

Double horizontal spry drop down menu bar problems
Hello Everyone,
I'm new to the spry tools and I need a little help. This is what I'm trying to accomplish in Dreamweaver CS4:
I need 2 horizontal spry menu bars for navigation. I have created a div for each spry tool, 1 div placed above the other and they cross the entire width of the page. I have created the spry menu bars. Everything seems to be working correctly in both menu bars, That is until you open the IE browser, all other browsers tested fine. The problem is that when you hover over the bottom menu bar in IE, the drop down menu does not drop all the way down. The first submenu of the drop down menu covers the main menu bar. I have tried to change the css for the spry menu bar at the ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE to show the display: as inline and also tried block and niether had any effect. Someone please help. Thanks.
css spry drop down menu 1
/* 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;
css spry drop down menu 2
/* 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.adminbarh li.MenuBarItemIE
display: inline;
