The reason my comments may have seemed harsh is that frankly there was
obviously some kind of conflict going on between your CSS and javascript.
And the fact that both the javascript and the CSS had obvious problems on
their own meant that debuggng this would be a lot of work.
It is obvious that you have edited the menu script quite extensively to
remove the "you are here" functionality and to effect other changes.
This makes things hard to debug, were there originally problems in the
script? The person you are asking help of would have to check. Were the
problems introduced by your editing? The person will have to diff the files
to see what you changed and slowly eliminate each instance to take it out
of the equation.
I have looked into the problem again and after loads and loads of editing
(and time!) I have found that the problem is here (in your CSS):
a:hover{
font-size: 95%;
font-weight: 500;
color:#cc3300;
background-color:transparent;
text-decoration: underline;
}
Change that to
a:hover {
/* font-size: 95%; */
/* font-weight: 500; */
color:#cc3300;
background-color:transparent;
text-decoration: underline;
}
and your problems will go away.
I would like to state the obvious for ALL on this list.
If you are asking for help please make as simple a test-case as possible.
If you have modified third party code please state so and tell us if you
have eliminated possible conflicts that are because of that.
Realise that you are asking for free help, that no-one is getting paid for.
If you have written invalid code and haven't tested this don't be surprised
if someone tells you about this.
Please read the following article:
<http://diveintomark.org/archives/2003/05/05/why_we_wont_help_you>.
There are quite a few talented people on this list who are more than
willing to help out, but like Mark says in the article above, you will have
to meet us half-way. As it is I have spent almost three hours debugging
Gregory's code. And frankly I can only do that because at the moment I'm on
holiday. Another week and I will not have that time.
Cheers, Harold.
