Hello Peter. I *do* and will use jQuery for everything else on the site. Consider myself converted. What I am having difficulty finding is a jQuery dropdown menu that has a similar look and feel. Namely, dropdowns that have multiple columns and indented values. If you need an example of what I

Cutter Andy... like I mentioned in an earlier email, I'm no jQuery wiz and don't have the skillz to convert the Suckerfish script to jQuery. That is why I am looking for a pre-made solution that I can then tweak design wise. Searches on Google for jQuery Menus return mostly simple examples. Any

A drop down menu script I am currently using is giving me an error (and a headache) when viewed in IE 6, 7 or 8. It shows up as a little yellow icon with an exclaimation mark at the bottom of the page. The script works, but I cannot figure out how to remove the code that is causing the error. Any

Hey Che, My staff swear by the plugin(s) available for FireFox to debug IE related JS issues. I haven't used the plugin(s). but I know how you got your headache trying to do it in IE which doesn't even give you a line number to go on ;-) Cheers - Bryan Stevenson B.Comm. VP Director of
