Hi Ray, You need a min-width on the body element and/or to apply the menuwrapper background to the root menu items (<a>) so that when your menu does wrap, you will be able to read the text. The tutorial example for this particular menu uses em widths to prevent wrapping: http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/navigation/auto_hide/workpage.htm You might want to consider that approach or perhaps pare down the number of root menu items you have. It's a lot for a horizontal menu. -- Al Sparber - PVII http://www.projectseven.com Fully Automated Menu Systems | Galleries | Widgets http://www.projectseven.com/go/Elevators ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
