Here is the solution:
- replace:
<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>
- by the script above (first mail) or even by:
<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>
and it works ! Simpler than I tought. There is something wrong with
the oneliner version of the script introduced in release 1.77.1
Something related with a new line in comments.
BTW, is there anything wrong in my post, they were no answers :-(
Thanks for web2py anyway. It's more than great.
