[web2py] Submenus and IE6

[KR]

Hi,

I have the same problem as in that thread : Submenus and IE6 (
http://groups.google.be/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/5b80149ee6cb508b/61fd3cb44109803e
)

To make sure that I didn't messed all up, I installed a fresh new
1.19.2 web2py and I tried on the welcome/default/index page. On my
windows with firefox PC it works as expected : I can see the
Controller-View_layout-... submenu when I put the mouse pointer on
Edit (in the left column). Unfortunately, when I use an older Windows
box with IE6 (we have a lot like that), nothing happens when I put the
pointer on the Edit field.

I need to deploy an application and upgrade IE6 is not an option.
Javascript is working, I checked it. The patch:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
/* this adds sfhover class to menu li items to make IE6 work */
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    jQuery('li.web2py-menu-expand').hover(
        function () {
            jQuery(this).addClass('sfhover');
        },
        function () {
            jQuery(this).removeClass('sfhover');
        }
    );
});

//-->
</script>

is in the layout (as a one-liner) out of the box.

What can I do ?

Thanks already.
