Vertical & Horizontal Submenus Do Not Appear in IE 7

Both the vertical and horizontal submenus of my Spry menu bars do not appear on hover, although other parent menu items (without submenus) do highlight on hover. The menus work fine in Safari and Firefox. I appreciate any assistance anyone can provide.
I have tried all the various solutions from help sites to no avail. I have also updated my Spry assets in Dreamweaver CS4 and used the recommended IE browser hacks. After many iterations, I got both main/parent menus to appear in the correct positions in IE 7, but the submenus will not drop right or down.

Gramps:
I am confused. What does your example have to to with Spry menu bar widgets, absolute positioning, and the reason my code will not drop down or right
the submenus in "Internet Exploder" ? Your code suggestions have no apparent relevance to the problem.
After a hundred iterations, I am close with my code above: it works flawlessly in all the other browsers and correctly positions the main menus in IE 7. It's only problem is that submenus do not pop up or down on hover over the main menu item. If I alter the main menu containers to relative position, the code breaks down in all browsers. Relative position seems a meaningless approach to correcting where ul.menubarvertical.ul or ul.menubarhorizontal appear. Javascript moves them into position from off screen on hover, not CSS positioning commands.
The problem seems to be not in CSS, style or absolute positioning - especially since the Spry widgets work fine in every other browser than the almighty IE - rather, it seems like the problem is the lack of compatibility in IE with Javascript, the mysterious engine of Spry assets that few of us seem to understand. We rely on the experts of costly software to guide us through the Javascript gauntlet so we do not have to learn it ourselves. The fact the menu will not load up on hover would seems to be a command incompatibility in Javascript with IE 7 (the submenus are initially off the screen to left), since everything in HTML appears appropriately in absolute position for all browsers. My amateurish guess is that Javascript alone moves the submenu from offscreen to on screen, not CSS style code. Does that seem a reasonable assumption?
Gramps, I appreciate your help, but wonder why the programmers of Spry at Adobe cannot come clean with a solution to a problem they created in a program they charge a considerable sum to license. This is not rocket science - as some of us who have been programming for decades would realize - rather, its voodoo: a silly idiosyncrasy of a low level language that neither Microsoft or Adobe care to address for idiots like me, who bought their software. I have even offered paid, expert web site development consultants to fix the problem, and they don't know their ***** from second base.
Is there no one out there to figure this glitch out in simple terms? This is not the Mission to Mars. Works in several browsers, but not in another: Why? There is a clue out there in the collective brain trust: they are just not sharing it with us mere mortals.
Gramps, thanks again for your help. You are a good person.

Vertical Scroll bar does not appear in table control

Hi ,
I have a table control with both vertical and horizontal scroll bars.
The data which comes is always more than 50 and the visible line size is 8.The vertical scroll bar
does not appear at times..but if i run the program again, it appears..
Sometimes it appears and sometimes no vertical scroll bar comes thought the data is more than the visible lines.
Any suggestions ? why is this happening?
Regards,
Sharadha

You have inserted data in the internal table and not "informed" the table control
In the PBO, use a statement like
DESCRIBE TABLE <itab> LINES <control>-lines.

Horizontal scroll bar not appearing-Alert report screen

Hi All,
I have an agent setup which shows alerts and a report is fed as an input/delivery content. The report is fairly big with many columns and cannot fit in the standard alert screen hence need a horizontal scroll bar to view all the columns. But unfortunately there are two vertical scroll bars which are appearing and no horizontal scroll bar. Could the experts please let me know if this is a bug or is there any configuration that I am missing?
OBIEE version: 11.1.1.5
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Vikram

Hi,
Sorry for the delay in response. The issue was because of IE7 version. Its a bug.
Thanks,

Submenus do not appear

Here is the code for my spry vertical menu where the submenus do not show up, either in the browser or in DW. The menu item is TRAINING, with submenus Training Course Schedule, Course Drawings and Testimonials. Also, do I have to put a link in the top menu item when I have submenus? Or just links in the submenus? Thanks for your help.   ~Patti

Here is the code for my spry vertical menu where the submenus do not show up, either in the browser or in DW. The menu item is TRAINING, with submenus Training Course Schedule, Course Drawings and Testimonials.
There is nothing wrong with the markup that you have show, tests in all browsers have shown the submenus. The tests were performed using the original Spry JS and CSS files and conducted in IE7/8, FF and Chrome
Also, do I have to put a link in the top menu item when I have submenus? Or just links in the submenus?
Just links in the submenus.

Horizontal guide would not appear out of the top ruler since Indesign was installed on new computer.

I feel so frustrated because I cannot get the horizontal guide to appear out of the top ruler since I installed Indesign on my new computer. I can get the vertical guide out of the left ruler like always. I have searched the net and came across a way to get the horizontal guide (by double clicking on the left ruler) and also to get one by changing a vertical guide into a horizontal one (alt clicking while dragging). I was just wondering why would I not get the guides as always from both rulers? If anybody can help me, I would really appreciate it!

I forgot to mention that I am using Adobe Indesign CS5.

RH9 submenus do not appear; pc "dings" on mouse click

Edition: RH HTML
Version RH9
When I click on a submenu like File>Open or File>Import>HTML, at the moment the dialog box should appear, the cursor momentarily changes to the "spinning circle" (Windows 7) as if a dialog box is going to open, but then nothing happens. The cursor returns to the arrow. When I click anywhere on the screen, the computer beeps as if it's waiting for a interaction with a dialog box -- one that is not visible. RH doesn't seem to be locked up, it just seems like a dialog box has popped off the monitor and I can't get it back.
This even happens on the initial RH screen when I click "Open". I must end the program in Task Manager in order to restart RH. This problem happens with any project, including the samples.
RH was working fine before this happened about a week ago. I was going to import an .html file and it seems like I clicked too fast or somewhere on the edge of the menu hotspot or something -- like I almost clicked in the right place, but didn't. Suddenly, I just got beeps when I clicked.
My troubleshooting attempts:
Resizing the screen, resetting pods, closing pods, tile/cascade windows...
Uninstall/install RH9
Search the forum. Found a simlar topic called "HELP! Preview Topic has stopped working". Printed and tried the steps suggested for making changes in the Registry, but the directory/file structure didn't match mine, so I didn't make any changes.
Please help soon. I'm having to use an auxilliary computer that is much slower.
Thanks in advance,
Shelley

Hi there
In RoboHelp 9 you click the Workspace and choose Default. But I'm doubtful that this will actually help things.
The symptom you are describing sounds exactly like a situation where a dialog is appearing, but you are unable to see it for whatever reason. With a second monitor, we usually see folks that were using a second monitor, then disconnected it. The problem is that the dialog is expecting to appear on the second monitor and you cannot see it because it isn't connected.
You might try downloading a copy of MurGeeMon and see if you can use that to manipulate the windows.

Spry Horizontal Menu Submenus Won't Appear - Help

OK, I have a Spry Horizontal Menu Bar done through DW CS5. The root menu items work just fine. And the arrow graphics indicating there are submenus are shown, however when you hover over the main menu item the submenus do not appear in browser preview. The spry menu bar is located in the header div above a main content div and a sidebar div (two column layout). Interestingly enough if I drop a new menu bar in the main content div with sample submenus it works fine, so the css file must be ok because they both read off the same css file.
My only assumption is there is something in the header code which conflicts with the submenus and is not allowing the submenus to appear. Unfortunately I can't post it only in a test location as I am reworking an existing website and when I post the new css file it will obviously change the existing website.
But here is some of the relevant code. First the HTML for the section in question.
I very much appeciate any advice.

Horizontal Spry Submenu does not appear correctly in IE

I am building a site in Dreamweaver CS5 and my spry submenus do not appear correctly in IE.   I work on a mac, but have been checking my work on a pc.   I have tried looking through other posts and have made some corrections (I at least got the submenus to appear vertically instead of laterallly in IE) but still have two problems:
   * The submenus are shifted to the right rather than aligning under the menu headings
   * One one menu (Attorneys) the submenus appear above, rather than below, the menu heading
Here is the website and I am really hoping someone can help! I've spent several hours trying to figure this out with no luck.
http://webdesign.protas.org/olg/English/olg%20eng.html

1. Especially IE takes offence to the DOCTYPE declaration not being on the first line
2. There is no end tag for the HEAD section
3. Your use of the Library Item for the menubar is not correct

Horizontal scroller not appearing despite viewport being larger than scoller area

I have a few datagrids which I have rotated 270 degrees so the header will be on the left side. I have contained these datagrids in a VGroup so they would be stacked on top of each other. Everything looks as I want it, but the horizontal scroller will not appear. The Columns are very tall and go off the screen and I cannot scroll to the right to see them. I have tried everything. I've made the scroller width smaller and nothing changes. I've added an HGroup and then Group to contain the VGroup and still no change. Any idea how I can get this scroller to work?

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

Update to 1.6.1 if that doesn't help, provide us with a online url.

After update to O/S 7.1.2 my iPad2 is stuck on Vertical Orientation and will not shift to horizontal as it has in the past. How can I get the flexible orientation back??

I agree with what FoxFifth has said, but I want to add a little to the discussion and put my own twist on the explanation.
If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen.
If you are running iOS 7, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to the control center and the lock icon is in the row of icons at the top all the way to the right.
If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the button

Vertical scrollbar does not appear

Hi all!
Here is my problem.
I have a JPanel on a JScrollPane (called: container).
I have an other class which extends JPanel (called: component).
I have a JButton which adds a new from component to container on every click. (container's layout is null, and I use the setBounds method on component).
After every adding I've just set a new height to the container (setSize(container.getWidth(), container.getHeigth()+100)), but vertical scrollBars of JScrollPane does not appear.
I tried to call the revalidate, repaint methods on the container but it did not work.
Please help me!

Which JScrollPane constructor are you using? If you're using one that does not specify scrollbar policy parameters, horizontal and vertical scrollbars only appear if the component's contents are larger than the view. You can of course set a JScrollPane's scollbar policies by calling the appropriate mutator methods: setVerticalScrollBarPolicy and setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy.

TS3274 I went to an Apple store yesterday and the guy there did something and now the ipad only works in the vertical (portrait) position and not the horizontal (landscape) position. How can we make it work in both positions?

Just in case you are not running iOS 7 and don't have the control center feature.....
If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it and you are running iOS 5 or 6, double tap the home button and swipe to the right and look for the lock icon all the way to the left.
If you are running iOS 7, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to the control center and the lock icon is in the row of icons at the top all the way to the right.
If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.

HT4623 My iphone 5 seems to be stuck in the horizontal view when I'm in the message mode. In all other views I can turn the phone 90 degrees and horizontal to vertical works fine. Not sure what the problem is.

I found a solution!
Perhaps this is just temporary, but I have my display up and working again.
Although the symptoms are different were a bit different, the solution here worked:
http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/120259/grey-screen-after-login-blue-scr een-of-death-from-cmdr
As I was able to connect to my HD via an external monitor, in the finder, I went to:
1. Macintosh HD --> System --> Library --> Extensions
2. From there I moved all of the files that started with ADM and ATI (19 in total for me) to a folder on my desktop. (You will need to enter your admin password for this)
3. Next was a restart.
4. Then my display started working again.
5. After that, I transferred the files back into my Extensions folder.
6. I then did another restart with my fingers crossed and breath held. It worked.
Also... During the last few days of trying to find a fix, I restored a Mavericks backup to my computer away from Yosemite.
I'm very sure this problem occurred when I put my MBP to sleep, disconnected the power in its sleep, while something was connected to a USB port and unplugging the USB device (for me an iPhone charger) while the MBP was closed.
I hope this helps the next person.

I still can't find a solution. Changing the parameter wmode:transparent works for .swf files but .flv files do not have the option to add this parameter. If you add it in the script manually it doesn't do anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I cn't find any solution online.
Thanks,
Adam
