IE Horizontal Menu Shift

I've been fighting the IE menu shift (spry 1.5). I've been
able to isolate the problem. When I change my menu text from left
justified to centered, the submenus then center themselves under
their main menu item. This then causes the 2 tier submenu to
disconnect from the 1 tier submenu by the distance of the
"centered" menu.
Does anyone know an IE fix for this situation.
The menu works great in FF and Safari (windows beta)
Thanks,
Shawn

Hi Shawn,
Have you seen this sample?

  • Horizontal menu bar height and formating

    I'm trying to put a horizontal menu bar into a table cell
    that's 507px wide by 21px high. I've run into two issues.
    First, adding a Spry MenuBar to this cell causes it to grow
    by 1px in height and thus throwing off all of my graphics in other
    cells. Setting the height in ul.MenuBarHorizontal to 21px does not
    change this (20px, auto, inherit didn't change it either). I've
    tried smaller fonts. Any ideas on how to get this work?
    Second - if I don't set the height to a pixel value in
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal, my background image is only displayed behind
    the menu items. That leaves a good bit of white space. My
    background image is 1px wide by 21px high and is stretched to fill
    the full background. Setting a height will make the background
    image cover the complete cell. Is that a feature?
    thanks,
    Dan

    If I change the positioning element in ul.MenuBarHorizontal
    to absolute, my horizontal menubar fits within the cell and does
    not cause it to grow. Any other setting for positioning throws off
    the cell size and screws up my sliced graphics in other cells of
    the table. I don't understand why the menubar shifts in a fixed
    width/height cell. If it's set to static or fixed, the cell grows
    by 1px in height. If it is set to relative, it grows much
    larger.

  • Horizontal menu moves when opening new pages

    I have seven top level pages and have used the horizontal  menu widget in my master page. When I view the site in my browser the first four pages load with no problem but when I open the last three pages the menu moves  about 20pixles to the right. If I then open say page two from this page the menu then reverts back to the original place as it was in the home page.
    Can anyone advise me as to why this is happening. I have also tried this with the last four pages left blank and the problem still exists so I would assume that the page content is not the cause.
    Thank you in anticipation
    John

    One way that it could shift is if the first few pages are longer than the others and the side scroll displays or disappears.

  • Horizontal Menu Movement

    Hey Guys...
    So I'm experimenting with Muse at the moment just trying different things out. I create a simple 4 page test site yesterday with a horizontal "menu" on the left which was just a collection of links to various pages of the site, I did not use the menu widget it was just a text box. The right hand side I just had a block of lorum ipsum text on each page. I noticed when I went to preview the menu would shift left and right (move) on each page, I have no idea why this is happening as the menu is on the master page and should not move? The shift is ever so slight but is noticable. The font used is the same on all pages as well, I just can't make it out... any idea why this is happening or what I can do about it?
    thanks.

    Thanks Nine_Design it indeed was the scrollbar appearing causing the slight shift, I inserted the css code:
    html {
    overflow-y:scroll;
    and that fixed it for me, but the downside is the scrollbar always shows even if it's not needed...

  • How can I get a horizontal menu widget to display at 100% width?

    I have created a horizontal menu with uniform spacing and have stretched it out to each side. I can't get the red indicator line to show up on the left side, but it does show on the right. No matter what I do, the menu continues to show up short on the right side of my screen in preview mode.
    Does anyone know how to do this properly? Has anyone else had issues with it?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    We are aware of this limitation with the Menu and Panel Widgets and hope to address the same in future.
    Thanks,

  • How do I change vertical menu to a horizontal menu in Dreamweaver CS5?

    Doing a website (my first) for a friend of mine. Followed the Adobe tutorial for a lot of it (with Paul Trani) and have everything done but now my friend wants the menu bar to be horizontal instead of vertical. (I have other questions but this is the big one for now) I do have a CSS file that is linked to all 4 pages. I have hunted and searched to no avail. The page started out as a template (2 column fixed, left sidebar, header and footer). I am hoping I just have to paste some code into it and have found a few suggestions on the web but nothing seems to work. I did get it to the point with a list with no bullets  with no background but can't get it to go horizontal. Then code started showing up on my design page and I gave up and turned to this forum. I would hate to start over. I do not even see a template that has a horizontal menu on it for one of the choices. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I think you are confused about how to differentiate between horizontal navigation and vertical navigation.
    In HTML, both are exactly the same. You use a list. So both will be just like you describe them:
    <ul>
    <li><a href="#">Link one</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Link two</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Link three</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Link four</a></li>
    </ul>
    Now, there's your navigation. Done. So how do we do an horizontal nav? Well we tell web browsers to format our HTML code in a style sheet, called a Cascading Style Sheet, or CSS. So let's give the <ul> a tag that tells the browser that it's not just a simple unordered list; it's special and has to be set up a certain way:
    <ul id="nav">
    <li><a href="#">Link one</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Link two</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Link three</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Link four</a></li>
    </ul>
    Now, let's go to our style sheet and create the style for the id "nav." And remember, anything with an ID on a web page must occur only once. If you're going to have several "nav" tags on your page, you have to make a class. The difference (in CSS) between a class and an id is the use of a hash "#" for an id and a dot "." for a class.
    So here's the CSS for the horizontal navigation:
    #nav {
              width: 100%;
              float: left;
              margin: 0 0 3em 0;
              padding: 0;
              list-style: none;
              background-color: #f2f2f2;
              border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;
              border-top: 1px solid #ccc;
    #nav li {
              float: left;
    #nav li a {
              display: block;
              padding: 8px 15px;
              text-decoration: none;
              font-weight: bold;
              color: #069;
              border-right: 1px solid #ccc;
    #nav li a:hover {
              color: #c00;
              background-color: #fff;
    Here you're floating both the list and the list items left. Floating the list items left is what pulls them into a nice horizontal row, stacking the items from left to right. However, because of how floats behave, the containing list will collapse to a height of zero unless it is also floated left.
    And that wouldn’t be a major problem, except the list has a background color and if the list collapses, that background color won't show. This way, it’ll fill up the entire width of the page (or of its container, if it’s in a container with a width set).
    Additionally, the only margin you see will be the bottom one, so the list items will make their own margins and behave themselves. The list-style is set to “none,” which removes the bullets.
    Now all navigation will certainly be a link, so I style the list items that are links (#nav li a) with padding that will space them out, get rid of the default underline, setting the text decoration to none, making them bold and creating a thin right border. Then I change the color on the nav for a hover.
    Now, vertical is the default for a list.
    Here's the difference:
    You keep list-style: none;
    You get rid of your floats.
    You get rid of the 100% width, unless you have it corralled in a containing div, like a left or right sidebar.
    Boom! you're done.

  • Spry Horizontal Menu Bar not working in IE

    Hi! I am new to this forum and new to Dreamweaver. I recently used Dreamweaver to build a website to display my digital portfolio. I am not very good at this and don't understand much of this works. I inserted a spry horizontal menu bar for my navigation. I did change the original set up to have the background the colors I wanted and I also changed the size so it would go across the top of my page. This looks fine in Firefox and Safari but in Internet Explorer the bar displays vertically, which does not look good. Can anyone look at my code and tell me how I can fix this problem?
    I appreciate any help I can get with this as I have tried everything I know.

  • Nube needs help inserting a JQuery horizontal menu bar into my site-help.

    Please forgive the ignorance of my questions but I am new to Mobile site design and Dreamweaver.
    I am trying to build a responsive web site for my company that can be viewed on multiple platforms, but am having trouble inserting a responsive menu and responsive slide show.
    This post is in regard to the  menu bar, which I have created using JQuery on a seperate page. I have managed to get the layout to work but still can't figure out how to create mouse overs for the links
    or how to insert it into my site. 
    Please help.
    Why can't I see the nav bar in the site when I paste in?
    All I see is the text and no images. I know I am pasting the code in the wrong place.
    Where do I insert it?
    Below is the code for the site and below that is the code for the menu bar.
    Where do I insert it? Help.
    Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

  • Horizontal Menu Bar Help Needed

    Hi there, I am somewhat new to web design but I've been helping a friend update his business's page recently.  We use Dreamweaver CS3 and our hosting is thru GoDaddy. 
    My problem appears when I try to insert a horizontal menu bar (Insert>Spry>Menu bar) so that a dropdown menu will appear when I hover over an option, much like the top menu on the GoDaddy homepage, among others.  It works correctly when I preview my page in a browser from Dreamweaver, (Firefox, IE) but when I actually upload my page to the GoDaddy servers and view it, it shows up not as a bar with hidden options, but as a long unformatted vertical list. 
    The site in question is here: http://www.notyouraveragebookkeeper.com/indextabs
    I thought it might be a problem with CSS, but I made sure that all of the style sheets are properly uploaded to the servers, and I made sure that my browser accepted any Javascript applets.  I've also tried it with my Dreamweaver CS5 trial.  Like I said, I am an amateur in every sense of the word and I'm still learning technical terms for things so some of my jargon may be a bit flawed.  I have done a good bit of online research in forums and otherwise, and I've tried solutions that have been given to similar problems. Maybe someone could view the source code and find out where I've gone wrong, or suggest tips to identify problems in Dreamweaver. I feel like the problem lies within the Spry framework, but I have very little knowledge on how it works or what it does.
    Any assistance in this regard would be extremely helpful and appreciated.

    Neither SpryMenuBar.js and SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css can be found by your online site.
    Possibly these have not been uploaded or uploaded to a wrong location.

  • Horizontal Menu Bar - Not displaying correctly in Internet Explorer

    My issues are occuring in Internet Explorer 8 and 7, haven't tested earlier versions.
    I am currently using DW CS5, Spry 1.6.1
    The website (not yet complete) is at www3.sympatico.ca/mitchell.richard/
    The menu bar as viewed in Firefox is correct. In Internet Explorer the menu bar is left justified, hides visited links, and lists horizontal menu items in reverse order.
    I work for a Women's Shelter in Canada, as the Information Systems Manager. We don't have the funds to hire someone to build a website and it was decided and I quote "You know computers, you can buld the website". I couldn't get them to understand the analogy that just because a Neurosurgeon can use a scalpel he isn't a Cardiothoracic Surgeon... needless to say, I am floudering on this menu bar. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    The red coloured line causes your menu to be displayed the wrong way round in FF. IE shows the menu as you have listed it with Contact Us as the first item.
    Advice:
    change the float to left so that the listed items start on the left hand side
    change the listed items in the order that you want them to appear.

  • Horizontal menu bar mac to pc

    Recently created this page:   http://musicnotes.net/MNI/SPRY.html using Dreamweaver CS3 but it does not look the same in all browsers.
    It starts out with the table width set for 100% and then hard sets the
    column widths to force the complete heading to something like 1600 pixels
    wide.  The cell widths should be allowed to set themselves.
    In IE 6.0, and probably IE 7.0, the mouse over point to change colors is a
    narrow strip between the links.  Results in white flashes as you move down.
    In IE 8.0, which is now similar to FireFox, the mouseover color changes work
    okay but the secondary panels overlap the primary column.  It's workable but
    doesn't look quite right.
    Except for being forced super wide and too big, everything seems to work
    okay in Firefox.
    Does anyone know if these issues are resolved using CS4.

    Thanks Gramps, will take a look and get sorted!

    The structure of your document needs fixing. You will be able to get a lot of information from here http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/css.html
    After you have fixed the structure start with a fresh copy of SpryMenuBar. Read this before making any changes http://www.dwcourse.com/dreamweaver/ten-commandments-spry-menubars.php#one

  • Another SPRY horizontal menu problem with IE7

    I posted this before, with no responses, but I think
    I've narrowed it down to a CSS response problem with IE7.0. If you
    view the attached link in Firefox or Opera, the menu background
    color responds correctly on the drop downs. In IE7, the
    background-color is ignored, causing the menu to be translucent
    and, uh, ugly. Has anyone else had an issue with the
    background-color CSS attribute in the SPRY horizontal menu css not
    working?
    HELLLLLP! and, uh, Thanks,

    >>
    Regrettably, the silence from the forum has been deafening.
    I'm not sure if folks are just wary of SPRY and AJAX issues right
    now because they're so new or if it's the summer heat
    >>
    guess it´s all of that :-) But folks visiting these more
    "general" Dreamweaver forums are not necessarily Spry experts
    respectively might not even be interested in that -- you´ll
    certainly get more response when posting Spry related questions in
    the

  • Spry horizontal menu problem in IE and Chrome

    First I'd like to express my frustration with spry. I spend way too much time trying to "band-aid" spry to work in different browers. I'll admit that I'm new to the web game but I seem to spend a large percentage of my time simply trying different "fixes" to something that I don't think should be this much of a problem. Regardless ...
    I've made a pretty simple web page, put a spry horizontal menu on it and it works and displays just like it's supposed to in FF but IE and Chrome both seem to have a problem with it. Currently there are no links attached to it but that's not my problem - getting it to display correctly is. Possibly this issuehas already been addressed but I couldn't find it in the forum. Webpage can be viewed here
    I've put (what I believe to be) the relevant css on the Main Content section of the page. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I am so glad that you started again, this is the best way to learn, trial and error.
    To fix your woes to date, have a look at the following
    .thrColFixHdr #header {padding:0;} /*remove the padding from the menubar container*/
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal{width:auto;margin:0;} /*remove the fixed width and auto margin*/
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal li{width:16.6667%;} /*spread the 6 items over the full width 6*16.6667% = 100%*/
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a{text-align:left;} /*Set the the alignment back to left for any menu item links that are in a sub menu*/
    To add images to your menu items have a look at the following http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/MenuBarSample.html, you will find it at the bottom of the page.
    I did not realise that SolidWorks still existed, started using it in the mid 1990's, excellent product, easy to use and promotes fast product development. I lost track of it when I went for retirement 10 years ago.

    Complete page and css code below (scroll down)
    All you should be concerned with at this moment to get the background image to appear in the top level anchor is the css style below:
    /* Menu items that have a submenu have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenu and are set to use a background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenu
    background-color: #000;
    background-image: url(../rot.jpg);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: left top;
    I've added the background-postion because presumably you want it to appear flush left. This overides the out-of-the-box setting which positions it 95% far left.

  • Spry horizontal menu alignment problem

    There is an issue I am dealing with that is causing problems.
    I am trying to avoid having the borders double up in thickness, anywhere within the menu.
    I have achieved this by using the left and bottom border everywhere I can and then adding class or id tags where appropriate and adding my own top and right borders.
    Works fine everywhere except at the top of the dropdown section of the submenus where it connects with the main horizontal menu.
    I would like that top box of the submenu to align perfectly with the main horizontal menu bar so that there is a clean single pixel line.
    A clean contiuous line around all menu objects.
    When I add a top border on that top box of the submenu, I can adjust the placement a little but it always seems to either over ride the main horizontal menu, which causes me to either lose the border or double up on it.
    if I have a border completely around both the horizontal menu and the submenu, then when I align them so that the borders sit on top of each other, I get an artifact at the corners of the lines that appear as a gap.  It is NOT clean.
    I can edit the position of the submenu in the CSS code below, I have done this with the margin-top statement.  I have adjusted that between 0 and -1, and will inlcude images of the problem.  Hopefully this will work.
    I want a very clean continous line around the menu boxes that does NOT leave gaps, does NOT double up in thickness or leave any strange looking artifacts anywhere.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Posting screenshots only demonstrates the problem. For anyone to troubleshoot it for you, they need to see the actual menu. Upload the problem page to a public website, and post the URL here. Then someone can have a look at it for you.
