any help sould be appreciated
Thanks

As long as you have got inconsistancies in your code as the hightlighted parts in the following, I would not worry about the menubar not showing properly.

  • Spry vertical menu problem with IE

    We implemented the spry vertical menu for showing the
    categories of a products catalog. It has almost 1800 categories
    organizad at about 5 levels, some categories have about 30
    subcategories. These categories are extrated from a database.
    It works in mozilla but in IE present this problem:
    - The response time is slow when you change from one category
    to ahother. And the effiecience decrease.
    See in
    http://edit.panamericana.com.co/
    Thanks,
    Alejandro

    I tried in Firefox 3 and IE7 and they both seemed fairly slow
    for any action to take place. But IE7 did seem pretty slugish.
    It seems that you're already determined what the issue is,
    you have waaaaaay too many menu items. Seems to me that that number
    of items don't belong in a menu. There are even menus that are too
    long to appear entirely on the page, so they can't be easily
    accessed without accidentally hiding the menus again, which I did
    several times. IN particular:
    Cartuchos > Technologica
    If you cannot change to a different format to show all of the
    items, then perhaps you can split up the menu so that you don't
    have too many at one time. I checked the code of your page and it
    seems that you've got a lot of other scripting going on there
    besides Spry, so is the issue with Spry or with everything else
    you're trying to do with that menu. If you can try to recreate the
    page with only the menu items on it (and not pulled in dynamically
    on the fly), and then add back to your page a bit a time, you might
    be able to find out what is really causing the delays.

  • SPRY Vertical Menu Problem (IE Hack?)

    I'm having a problem with the Spry vertical menu bar. The one
    I created works fine in Firefox and in Safari, but not in Internet
    Explorer. In IE the sub-menu containers open AT THE TOP of the menu
    bar, and not next to the selected menu item. I'm not sure how to
    fix it. Any help is appreciated.
    You can see the problem here (view in IE and roll over any of
    the menu items in the middle or lower part of the menu bar):
    http://southerncharmgifts.net/thesouthernsportsman/html/ssarchery.html

    I downloaded the Spry update but it didn't fix the problem.
    It changed my menu box to white, when it should have remained
    black. Hopefully I can fix it. But still the same problem with IE.
    This is really bad! Any way to reverse the update?

    then you will see an option at the bottom to update Spry in your
    site.
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
    Looking at your page it appears to validate except for one
    thing. All images need alt tags assigned to them.
    See if updating the Spry helps.
    Also there is a Spry forum that Adobe does check in case
    there are bugs. The link to the forum is on that page and I will
    also link it below:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/labs_spry_pr1_forum
    With regards to Pitmaster you can check the above links but
    depending on the issue it could be something else. So if you need
    further assistance post a link to your page.

  • SPRY Vertical Menu Problem

    Hey Guys,
    I am have been trying to figure this thing out for hours. I
    am new to coding. I made a vertical menu with one sub menu in
    products. It works fin on my mac computer when running it on
    firefox and safari, but when I run it on on a pc in Internet
    Explorer it does not work. Can you please help me, I have a
    deadline I am trying to meet.
    here is the link:

    Hi,
    I'll give exactly the changes you have to do to have the menu
    working on both browsers:
    On the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css file make the following
    changes:
    - on this rule: ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE ,
    delete background: #FFF; property. (This seems to have an influence
    here)
    - on this ul.MenuBarHorizontal li rule add a fixed height,
    height: 30px for example;
    - on this ul.MenuBarHorizontal iframe rule add the line:
    filter: alpha(opacity=0.1); (This is a known bug that is fixed for
    Spry 1.6)

  • Spry vertical menu button shows background color instead of image in preview

    Hello All, I'm a newbie (to the forum and Dreamweaver) so my apologies if my question is not in good form.  I've searched for this issue but cannot seem to find the exact problem I have. 
    I've created a website (my first) and used the spry menu bar.  It works well using the default blue and grey colors for button and hover.  However, I decided I want to spruce it up a little and change the buttons to use a background image (rainbow pattern) instead of background color.  I internet researched this for some time and watched all the youtube videos people have posted for this process and editing the spry vertical menu bar CSS.  Using the .a and hover lines from the CSS, I was able to add my background .jpg image file.  In the design view, the button look exactly how I want them to.  However, when I attempt to preview in IE, Chrome, or FF, the buttons still have the default colors and no image.  I've gone back and deleted the default blue and grey, but then the preview just shows dark grey and white for the buttoms.  is there something that I am overlooking that would cause the background color to show instead of the image I have attached to the buttons.  I can't figure out why it looks right in DW but not in preview.
    BTW, I'm editing a template file and all the pages are updated with the new image buttons, but none of the pages show correctly in preview. 
    Thanks

    Point taken :-)

  • Spry Vertical Menu Bar Styling Issues

    Hello all,
    I'm having CSS issues with a spry vertical menu bar. The Menu
    is fairly basic but, it has some odd sizing requirements specified
    by it's designer. The designer would like the sub menu items to all
    have different widths that correspond to the actual content within
    them. Here is sample.
    http://staging.rm306.com/cycle/
    The menu seen at the page above was not build with Spry. It
    was build with another tool and has considerable problems with
    consistent browser display.
    Can anyone give me a short list of styles and where they
    should be applied that might help me achieve this reletively simple
    effect?
    I've tried to use Spy menu bars in my projects in the past
    but, there was always some sticking point. I'd like this time to be
    the winner if possible.
    Thanks for your time and patience in advance,
    Kevin

    The sample page I posted came after searching for an easy
    "how to do it". The closest I found to a tutorial was this:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/spryte_menu.html
    The author designs and implements a spry menu with Fire Works
    graphics. The last section describes how to modify the existing CSS
    for multiple levels. Yet I found the sample page easier to follow.
    I hope this helps though.

  • Question on spry vertical menu bar backgrounds

    I have a spry vertical menu bar.  The menu branches off to 3 or 4 levels in some cases.  When you mouse over the menu structure the menu path that you have selected turns a different color.  I acheived this by giving
    ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarItemHover, ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover, ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
    a different text color and also a different background color using CSS.  The thing I want to acheive now is to somehow make listings within my menu structure that are clickable links a slightly different color.  This is to signal that a menu selection that is currently being hovered over is indeed clickable (and linked to another page).  For example, most of my clickable menu listings are at the end of a menu branches.  That is to say the menu listing at the 1st and 2nd level are not clickable (linked to another page) but the listing that falls at the end of the menu branch is clickable.
    How can I make the menu listings that link to other pages a different color then the other menu listings that do not link anywhere but are instead just the preceding struture to get you to the end of the menu structure?
    Currently menu listings which merely branches off and do not link to a clickable page have a reference of "#" as shown below.
    <li><a href="#">Menu_1</a>
    This "#" was put there by Dreamweaver so I just followed the pattern.  Clickable menu listings reference another HTML page as you would expect.

    Nancy,
    Thanks for the reply (it helped me know how to approach it).  It looks like editing
    ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover
    will give me the behavior I was looking for.  I don't know if that is what I want to do now that I look at it though.  Using different colored backgrounds when hovering over links seems to contrast too much (even though some are clickable and others are not).  Perhaps I didn't have the right color choice.
    Instead I thought about emphasizing links that are clickable (with some type of visual variation) as opposed to making the hovering background color path to those clickable links different.  I experimented with placing a 1 inch border around links in the menu that can be clicked but I am not sure if I like it or not.
    I am using a background color of #7D120C for the hover.  Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

  • Spry Vertical Menu and sub menus not working correctly

    I am designing a website for a client and cannot get the spry vertical menu and submenus to work correctly.  The submenus will show on the index.html page, but not on any other pages, or when I preview in browser. Should I make it a library item then add it to the other pages? I am not sure what I am doing wrong.  I appreciate your help!

  • Spry Vertical Menu Bar: Drop left? Arrows?

    2 Questions:
    1. I am trying to figure out how to make a spry vertical menu drop to the left instead of the right? Any ideas?
    2. It appears that my arrows are the same color as my background, therefor they are not showing up until the hover color changes. Can I change the colors of the arrows.
    Thanks for the help!

    Hi,
    to have the subitems displayed to the left, go to this rule
    ul.MenuBarVertical ul {} from SpryMenuBarVertical.css file and
    change this line: margin: -5% 0 0 95%; TO margin: 0% 0 0 -95%;

  • 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,

    guess it´s all of that :-) But folks visiting these more

  • 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.

  • Spry Vertical Menu Arrow Cursor

    I have created a vertical menu, I am using the word immunization in the menu.  The problem that I am having is the pointer at the end of immunization is on the n at the end of the word.  I have tried resizing every area up to 12 em, but it just doesn't move that arrow.  The arrow seems stuck in the same place.  I tried downsizing the font, but the arrow stays on the n no matter how small I make the font. Anyone know how to move the arrow?

    The arrow is applied as a background image, applied to the a text.
    ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarItemSubmenu
         background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRight.gif);
         background-repeat: no-repeat;
         background-position: 95% 50%;
    /* Menu items that are open with submenus have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenuHover and are set to use a "hover" background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
    ul.MenuBarVertical a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover
         background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif);
         background-repeat: no-repeat;
         background-position: 95% 50%;
    Although the comments indicate that the arrows are positioned on the far left, they are actually positioned on the far right, 95% of the distance from the left edge of the element.
    The a element has been set as a block element (it takes up the entire li in which it resides) and has been given a padding, which allows the background arrow space to appear, clear of text:
    ul.MenuBarVertical a
         display: block;
         cursor: pointer;
         background-color: #EEE;
         padding: 0.5em 0.75em;
         color: #333;
         text-decoration: none;
    If your arrow is bumping your text, and the arrow is the size you want, increase the horizontal (left and right) padding...boldened in the quote above...to make the li wider. If this does not suit, you can also increase the percentage distance from the left a few percentages, to fully nest the arrow in the right padding.

  • Spry Horizontal Menu Problem

    I switched to version 2 of the Spry Menubar due to sub-menu problems associated with iPads. Now I am having problems with sub-menus within IE8.  It is not possible to *quickly* scroll down the menu without the sub-menu disappearing.  Here is an example:
    http://gerberanalytics.com/tennis/tennis_header_test.php
    It works ok with CS6 in the design view, but not on the local test server or on the production server.  Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Gramps,
    I appreciate you providing this.  I took a closer look at the errors and I made a few changes but this validator service continued to kick out errors.  In fact if you put Adobe's own web site into this application (http://www.adobe.com), it comes up with 44 errors.  As I mentioned before, the Adobe Widget Browser application for Spry Menubar 2 is essentially creating my code so I doubted that this was an actual problem.
    While I have been interacting with you, I have also been awaiting an update from Adobe's senior technology staff for a solution.  I heard from them today.  Here is what Adobe said:  Spry Menubar 2 has problems with IE 8 and IE 9 (which I already knew).  The first person with whom I spoke at Adobe suggested that my customers running the IE 8 and IE 9 browsers should switch to a different browser, such as Chrome.  I explained that asking users to switch was not a solution -- that's about 35% of my users.  I then asked to speak with a manager / supervisor. 
    My conversation with the supervisor went a bit better.  He told me that those running IE 8 and IE 9 on a Windows XP machine are ok.  Vista is a problem.  Windows 7 is also iffy.  My machine is a Vista and my wife's machine is a Windows 7.  It does not work on either machine for us.
    I told him that Spry Menubar 2 should be withdrawn from their site or there should be a warning to insure that people are aware of the problems.  He didn't say that they would do that.  He suggested that I should check back with him in a couple of weeks.  I did not get a warm and fuzzy feeling that this was a priority item for them.
    At this point, I'm bailing on Spry Menubar 2.  I may return to Spry Menubar 1.6 which requires a "double tap" on the nav buttons to work on an iPad.  I may also check out jQuery.
    Thanks for the suggestions but it looks like Adobe has some serious issues.  If your customers are using iPads (and they are), Spry Menubar 2 is not a solution to fix the problems encountered in Spry 1.4 and Spry 1.6.

  • Spry Vert Menu problem

    Hi,
    A little history... I am new to DW (CS3) and am trying to
    teach myself. I have built a couple sites prior so I know just
    enough to be dangerous... :)
    I have a site I am developing with a frameset layout. "fixed
    top, nested left" in DW terms.
    Problem: My left panel is my 'menu' html. When I create a
    vertical menu w/spry widget and has a menu with a submenu, the
    submenus seem to go 'behind' the main page or what I call the body
    of my webpage. Is there a way to have the menus 'float' over a
    bordering page on a frameset ? My description might be less than
    crystal so please ask what info is needed. This site is not posted
    anywhere so there is no code to inspect ..yet..
    TIA,
    B

    Obviously not enough to know that each frame in a frameset is
    a separate
    window. You cannot make the content of one frame display over
    the
    content of another. It's one of the many disadvantages of
    frames.
