Horizontal drop down menu not staying open?

Hi there again,
So now I'm attempting to create a horizontal drop down menu. It is meant to be a vertical tab that sticks out, expands to the right, then expands and drops down.
However, when I hover over the button (which is the blue box) and click it, Flash thinks I'm clicking the button on the bottom. The technique I used to do it must be the problem. I'm using a button inside a button. (In place of the "over" state of my buttons, I have inserted a movie clip of which in itself are layers). I've tried so many things to try to make it work to no avail.
There must be an easier way to accomplish what I am doing...but as I've said before, I'm noob and experimenting.
The link to the uploaded .swf file is below. It isn't the final file, but it is a small sample of what I am trying to accomplish with the navigation.

Thanks!

When you roll over the purple rectangle, it expands to the right. You have to move the cursor to the right to get the rectangle to expand down, exposing the blue rectangle. The problem that you see when you roll over the blue rectangle is because the rollover on the blue rectangle causes a rollout on the object below and this causes the rectangle below to shrink up.
You can control this, but you'll need to use Actionscript to achieve the effect. Here's a link to one way: http://www.senocular.com/pub/kirupa/as3tips_p6.html.

Horizontal drop down menu trouble

Hello,
I am trying to make a horizontal drop down menu which is
located at the top of my page, right on top of an
image.(www.citadelap.com/index_copy(2).htm). I have my code working
in IE when it is on it's own page, without the image, etc.
(www.citadelap.com/drop_menu.html). What do I have to do to get
this drop down menu to show over the image in IE??
Thanks for any help you can offer!!!

I have quickly looked at your markup and found too many problems to discuss here. What I have found so far
There is no DOCTYPE
SpryMenuBarHorizontal is doubled up
There is extensive use of absolute position where it is not neccessary
I suggest you go to here http://www.w3schools.com/

I've almost got a global drop down menu working but I need help!!

I've got a drop down menu working that is in my "Sites" folder in MobileMe and can be linked to individual pages on my site with an html widget. This way I only have to change one file when I need to edit my navigation menu. It works fine as a footer as you can see here: http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Site/home_2.html
The problem is I can't figure out how to use it as a header because the Widget box has to be big enough for the menus to drop in or they get cut off, but if it overlaps the page content as it does on the top of the page it blocks the content.
Is it possible to make this transparent so the content shows through?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, if we can figure this out it will be a breakthrough for having an effective navigation bar and a great timesaver for editing.
Sincerely, David

with an html widget.
you can not achieve the result with html snippet widget, because you have no control over it.
... if we can figure this out it will be a breakthrough for having an effective navigation bar and a great timesaver for editing.
it can be done and it's a known debate between me and other whose like to hide iweb navbar and build their own text based navbar, here was my argument: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8136472&#8136472
that said, it can be done when you have control over iweb, here are examples:
http://home.cyclosaurus.com/CyclosaurusBlog/Entries/2009/8/11Pieces_of3.html (note the drop down menu overlap other elements).
http://home.cyclosaurus.com/CyclosaurusBlog/Entries/2009/9/10iWeb_NavBarWidget.html
the examples were done with my widgets, so give apple feedback and ask for tools to build widgets and take controls: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iweb.html

Does this drop-down menu work?

http://www.correctionalassociation.org/
The top horizontal nav menu should have drop downs for all but "Donate" If you can't see the the drop-downs, I would appreciate it if you'd post with your OS and browser number. If you have any ideas about what problem may be, that would be helpful too.
We've gotten 2 emails reporting problems with the site indicating that they probably can't see the drop-downs at all. I used Pixopoint's suckerfish dropdown generator to make the menu. Any known problems with that? I know Son of Suckerfish doesn't work with IE5/Mac or older versions of Navigator, but we haven't had any visits to our site recently with those browsers.
Any help would be just grand.
Sam

Tested ok on FF 3, IE, 7, Safari 4 - on the PC
I'll bet the ones having problems are IE 6 - I've heard the suckerfish menus don't play well with pre IE7

Hi there,
The menu goes away after I mouse out on Safari, Chrome, and Firefox (running osx) Have you tried clearing your cache on those browsers?

I can open hotmail but cannot open the email, it works fine in Internet Explorer, it seems as if the problem is with Java. I am using the latest version of Java, Help!!

I can sign into my Hotmail account and see emails but cannot open the email. I have tried to open the Java consul but it won't open. I can open emails OK in Internet Explorer. Any ideas??

You said you tried the recommended solution, but didn't mention what that solution was. Try, from the Firefox menu bar:
<br /><br />
Tools -> Options -> Content
where you will find an option to block pop-up windows. If that box is checked but there are sites from which you would like to allow pop-up, click the button "Exceptions..." to add sites to your exception list.

Horizontal Drop Down Menu

Another puzzler. I can't find
out how to change the width of a horizontal spry widget in CS3without changing them all.In
www.mccanngolfcourse.com/indextry1.htm
I want to make the Home button width less than the current 156 pixelsl
Please someone tell me how without changing all the rest of the widgets.
Thanks in advance.

Nancy, you are not at all cynical. You have been terrific,   Thanks. The
thing that has me going is that I accidentally did what I want to do but I
cannot repeat it. Thanks for the input.

Personally, I don't use them.   I think there are much better menu systems you
can use that WILL do what you want without re-writing the entire code.
This menu is set to auto and it works in all browsers. Also notice how
simply the CSS code is written.

I'm new to css. Can someone tell me what is wrong and how to fix it?

There's nothing to fix. Spry menus (circa 2006) employed several Hacks to make it work in older/lesser IE browsers. Adobe gave up on Spry in late 2012 because it doesn't meet current demands of the modern web. Most of us have ditched Spry and moved on to better menu systems that work better with IE10, IE11 & Touch Screens.

When searching on Facebook none of the links in the drop down menu work.

Including the "See more" option so I cannot search. Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox did not solve the problem and it does not happen with IE. How can I fix this?

IIRC, FM8 had an issue with a path having more than 5 (or 6?) sub-folders. Try bringing the files up a few levels or create a mapped network drive down to the lower levels.

How do I make Bookmarks like the easy pull down menu of Favorites in internet explorer?

Although I don't like much else, I liked the favorites menu from IE. A favorites symbol appeared on one of the menu bars at the top of the screen and I could open it and select my destination with one click.
My favorites from IE appear when I open bookmarks here but it is very cumbersome. There must be a way to customize this but I haven't been able to find it. I appreciate any help you can offer.

Is there no Bookmarks menu available in the Bookmarks toolbar? If you prefer the regular menu bar, you should be able to get that back by pressing the Alt key, then using View > Toolbars then check Menu Bar.
