Spry menu vanishes in Safari

Hi
I have just started developming my first site with s Spry Horizontal Menu.
Although the site's not finished I have put what I have done up on the server on the clients secondary domain. He called me to say the nav had gone a bit strange when he looked at it on his new laptop. I decided that although it looks fine on my m/c with IE and Firefox, I downloaded Safari to check it's OK with that and hey presto the nav has vanished without a trace!!!
Any one any ideas as to why. the url is http://www.fw-lighting.co.uk/home.html
Does Safari not support Spry?
Thanx

Fortunately it does, in fact when the original Spry files are used, ALL browsers support Spry.
Unfortunately your page misbehaves in < IE8  as well as Safari
That is why I would like to suggest that you
replace YOUR version of SpryHorizontalMenuBar.css with the original
modify
#navbar {
    background-color: #3a3289;
    height: 30px;
    width: 1000px;
to
#navbar in your stylesheet  to {
    margin-left: 560px;
    3. add the following style rules to your page making sure that these are loaded after SpryHorizontalMenuBar.css.
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a {
    background-color: #3A3289;
    color: #FFF;
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li {
    width: auto;
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul {
    width: auto;
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li {
    display: block;
    float: none;
    width: auto;
    white-space: nowrap;
    border-bottom: solid 1px #EEE;
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenu {
    padding: 0.5em 2em 0.5em 0.75em;
At a later stage you can create a file called myStyles.css, place the above style rules in there and bind the new stylesheet to your page.
I hope this helps.

  • Alignment Issues with Spry Menu Bar in Safari

    www.laurentambard.com    
    I am new to CS5 and currently building a site for a friend.  Having issues with aligning then far right spry menu bar so that it is flush with the page.  It only shows a problem on Safari (as far as I know).  Also the second tab (About) is dropping down slightly when the drop down menu is selected and not sure how to fix it.

    If you place the menubar in a container with an ID of nav or similar and a background color of #EEE so that it blends in with the background colour of the menu items, the centralise the menubar and menu items as per http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/CenteringHorizontalMenuBarSample.h tml, it should go a long way to meeting your requirements.

  • Spry Menu Bar Submenu won't show in Safari or Dreamweaver LiveView

    I am trying to get my submenu to show up on my website's spry menu bar. It will show up when I test the site using firefox or IE but it won't show when I try LiveView in Dreamweaver or when I test using Safari. The site is www.fuseut.com/fuse

    Sorry if it's something really basic...I'm a noob to web design.
    Thanks!

    Don't use reserved words in JS
    var event = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("events.xml", "catalog/event", {sortOnLoad: "date", sortOrderOnLoad: "descending"});
    event is such a reserved word. If you change this to event1 then all is well.
    I hope this helps.

  • Spry menu works in Firefox and Safari, but not Internet Explorer

    I designed my school website in CS4 and  CS5.  The left spry menu bar appears correctly in Firefox and Safari, but in Internet Explorer the gray background and buttons do not appear.  You can only see the text and when you scroll over the text, it disappears even though when you click on it, the link does appear.  The website is http://ml.chinookschools.org.  I created the site on a mac and I am hosting it on a mac mini server on my network at school.  I am a beginner with Dreamweaver and I'm not sure if someone can help me with this, but I would sure be appreciative for any help offered.

    You are not using the latest Spry files
    The latest version of the Adobe Spry Framework is 1.6.1, this is the same version that ships with Dreamweaver CS4. If you use Dreamweaver CS3 (uses Spry 1.4), its wise to upgrade your files to the latest version. This can easily be done using the Spry Updater that can be found here.
    Then, if you have a look near the bottom of SpryMenuBarVertical.css you will see that the white background colour has been specified for IE as in
    @media screen, projection
        ul.MenuBarVertical li.MenuBarItemIE
        display: inline;
        f\loat: left;
        background: #FFF;
    Change the value to #CCC and it will have fixed that part of the problem.
    When you upgrade to the later version of Spry, make sure to keep a copy of the CSS file as a reference to modifying the new CSS file.

  • Spry Horizontal Menu problem in Safari Mac/Windows

    Hello! 
    Has anyone run into a problem using a horizontal spry menu and it showing up corectly in Safari?  The menu is centered but I cannot get the table to center underneath.  I then wrapped the table in a div and center aligned it, after addeding a <br/> (just trying stuff to no avail.)
    Here is a link to a site I am working on.
    http://tesibridal.com/NEW/index.html
    So far I have found it does not work in Safari 3.2.1/Mac & Safari 3.2.2 and gives me a whole new set of spacing problems in Explorer (which I will address all of those next).
    Thank you in advance for your time.

    Hi clead16,
    What do you mean by "do not load properly in internet
    explorer"? I checked the site in IE6 and IE7 and it the menus
    render OK.
    You may want to also take a look at the
    Menu
    Samples and
    centering
    a horizontal menu
    on Adobe labs.

  • Vertical Spry menu works in IE7 but not Safari

    My vertical SPRY menu works well in various versions of IE
    but when I preview in Safari it has an odd way of creating the
    sub-menu. Here is the visual:
    http://www.ornh.mb.ca/index_test.html
    Any suggestions? Dawn

    First thing is first. Your spry code is out of date. You are
    running version 1.4 and the latest is 1.6.1. Go to the page below
    and run the Spry Updater package:

  • Spry Menu/Flash file Issue in Safari

    I've searched the web and read countless forums about this problem but none of the solutions have worked for me. My website is not published so I cannot direct you to a page to view it. All I can do is post my code, so I'm hoping that someone will be able to help!
    My home page has a Flash movie file that scrolls pics and I have a Spry menu bar to the left with popout menus. The page works PERFECTLY in Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Opera but NOT in Safari. When I test the page in Safari, the popout menu shows up behind the Flash file. The solutions I've read direct me to change the "wmode" value to "transparent" in two different places in the Flash file code. I've done this but it still doesn't work in Safari. I'm starting to wonder if there may be some value I need to change in the Spry menu. Any further suggestions would be great!
    CODE:
    Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.

    I'm not an expert. I'm not an idiot either. But could someone please
    tell me how I can insert my code for you guys to view? Can you not copy and paste? This is what I was trying to do but I ended up typing it all out and somehow it got lost when I posted the discussion! How aggravating!

  • Safari bold text causing problem with Spry Menu Bar

    I have made a web site using a Spry Menu bar. It worked fine across all browsers, as far as I knew. I was just alerted by th esite owner that the menu bar had the last link out of position when viewed in Safari. I'm not sure when this started happening. I notice the text in Safari is more bold than firefox or IE. My guess is that's the problem. I searched on google for help and found this
    Add - text-shadow: 0 0 0 #000; to the css.
    I tried that but it doesn't seem to have any effect.
    the site is here:
    http://www.telluridegravityworks.com/
    Can anyone offer any advice on how I might fix this? Thanks!

    I'm not seeing the issue in Win 7/Safari (assume it's a Mac issue) but I do see it in Win 7/IE9.
    In the CSS file, http://www.telluridegravityworks.com/css/gravity-works-winter.css
    tweaking the width of the navbar container fixes it here
    #nav-menu {
    width: 455px; /* adjusted from 445px */
    padding: 0px;
    overflow: hidden;
    float: left;
    margin-left: 515px;

  • Question: My spry menu bar is not displaying correctly in Dreamweaver

    Hello,
    I am  new to Dreamweaver CS5, so coding isn't my area of expertise. My problem with my spry menu bar is that it does not display the tabs on the menu bar correctly. When I try to apply new changes to the CSS of the horizontal menu bar, half of the tabs will change and the other half will not. Also, I am unable to drag and move the menu bar itself around, a function that I was once able to do before. At times, only one tab of the menu bar will display itself, without any of the other tabs as well.
    I have a hunch that my problems stem from some coding errors in the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css, and possibly in the SpryMenuBar.js. On the CSS Styles panel, my SpryMenuBarHorizontal.CSS list reads as follows:
    I also have a hunch that something about this line-up is also incorrect, but I don't exactly know what the problem is.
    Here is what my coding for my SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css looks like right now:

    This file handles the JavaScript for Spry Menu Bar.  You should have no need

    showing that submenu until the timer fires.

    If anyone could possibly steer me on the right direction with this, I'd be very grateful! I've been struggling with this for about a month now and I feel like I may have only made the situation worse.
    I'm not sure if I have to keep making a new spry assets folder in my website or not or if I have to drag and drop the spry assets into the root folder. I have restarted my website over at least a dozen times by now. I have tried changing folders, dragging and dropping various spry assets folders everywhere and I have also uninstalled and reinstalled my copy of Dreamweaver CS5 in the hopes of getting my spry horizontal menu bar to act normal. I am completely new at Dreamweaver and I really, really need some help with this.
    Thanks!

    I haven't been able to get my site posted up yet. Here is a link to it anyway:andrearosales.com
    I will be working on connecting my files up to my server. At the moment, here are some screen shots of some messages that I am getting when I am saving my file.
    I'm not sure what to make of these messages. I tried to put a new spry horizontal menu bar on my main page, and when it appeared, it displayed as a spry vertical menu bar.
    Here is a picture of what it looks like:
    I"m going to refer to the links that were suggested to me though. I'm not sure if pictures of the code will help to solve my problem. I'm going to try again to connect my files to my server though.

    I've saved my document and re-opened it, but still can't get the blue spry menu tab to show. Also can't see my submenus in the browser. It shows in my code. Here is my 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.

    You don't need to upgrade your software.  But if you're struggling with Spry, IMO you should cut your losses and switch to something better for the longrun.
    If you have a budget to work with, I highly recommend Project Seven's Pop-Menu Magic 3.  It's easy to use in DW CS4, 5, 6 or CC.  More importantly, it's bullet proof and works in all devices.

    If you don't have a budget to work with, you can roll your own menus with jQuery plugins.  A bit more effort on your part, but they perform better than Spry.

  • 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? I'm not sure where else to go as I've spent the last week on the web trying to resolve the issue. Everything works great on Safari and Firefox. My URL is http://www.visiongreeninvestments.org
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

  • Spry Menu Bar acting weird in IE

    Hello,
    I am relativley new to Dreamweaver and I built a website using CS4.  I never did a spry menu bar and I have one on my site.  The menu bar works fine in firefox, in safari it seems to work as it is aligned right, but my flash player doesn't.  But the main problem is in IE.  The grey background I have for the spry bar is in the right spot but the actual links are offset, and when you role over them the submenus are on the left and also offset.  I tried messing around with the hack IE in the spry css but not really sure what I am doing as I don't know code too much.  I also am Mac based and the problem in IE is on the PC. Also I built all the pages in Illustrator and inserted them in and used hot spots. I am not sure if that may have something to do with it.   If any one can help I would really appreciate it.  The website I created is http://www.menaceaudio.com. 
    Also if this helps here is my SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css

    I'm using IE8, and I don't see the offset errors of which you speak. I do recommend restoring the IE hacks at the bottom of the stylesheet to the original, however.
    I also notice that the width of the individual menu items (top level) is forcing "CONTACT" to a second line. You can safely remove the pixel width on the containing div, returning to 100%. But your paddings and widths of top level menu items may be the forcing issue here.

  • Spry menu bar not visible in live view

    Hi everyone,
    I was just working on the css for my spry menu bar and went to check it out in the live view, but it is no longer visible. I checked it out in Safari and Firefox to no avail. It looks totally fine in the design view in Dreamweaver. I'm new to web design and I have no idea what I did, but I'm really hoping someone here does! Below is the CSS.

    My guess is that you have a dark background in which case the menu items will not be seen.
    I suggest you have a look here first http://www.dwcourse.com/dreamweaver/ten-commandments-spry-menubars.php#one, then resurrect the original SpryMenuBarVertical.css and change as required.

  • Spry menu bar 2 IE9 issue

    Hi,
    I have a slight problem with a spry menu bar when viewed in IE9beta, when you hover over a menu item the hover background does not always complety fill the area immediately, eventualy it does.  This problem only affects IE9beta, I have tested it in the latest versions of safari, opera, firefox, and chrome.
    Any help with this would be appreciated,
    Richard.

    I must have looked at it in another browser, sorry.
    Had another look at it and indeed it may become an issue in IE9, but because IE9 is still in beta, anything can change.
    Watch this space.
