 but the typical script written for this purpose is sometimes not very
well-written and usually does not support IE 5 Mac. So what? Well, if it
were terribly difficult to support that browser, we wouldn't bother either.
But for a company that writes scripts for the leading Dreamweaver
menu-building systems, it was not very hard at all

The way I do it is that I make it *work* like in other browsers ;)
http://www.tjkdesign.com/articles/new_drop_down/AB.asp
I *do* create a *working* drop down in ie Mac (*os9*). Actually, it is a
vertical one which makes the solution even more accessible in that browser
since "diagonal' paths are replaced with "vertical" ones.
And my point about ie Mac earlier in this thread was about *OS9*, IMO,
people using OSX do have a choice of browsers. Also, ie's OSX is a very
different beast, *much* easier to deal with ;-).

As a side note, you "forbid people from doing sub-menus that pop out to the
right of the root" but you leave them with "fantom links", as suckerfish
does...

I don't want to start anything here, it is just the wording of your article
on top of what you said two days ago:
"I would urge Thierry to ditch the word "perfect" because it could be
construed by some visitors as either arrogant or theatrical.". After reading
your article, I thought that post needed an answer...

My sincere apologies to all for this post. FYI: it took me a day to hit the
send button.
