Hi guys,

I've tried everything posted in the forums, but for some reason my menu won't budge!

I have it set to relative positioning, I've added the spanID tag "themenu"... to my knowledge, everything should be working fine!

My page is here:
http://www.80scartoons.co.uk/NEWsite/test1.php

My menu is held here:
http://www.80scartoons.co.uk/NEWsite/80smenu.js

And my css file is here:
http://www.80scartoons.co.uk/NEWsite/80sstyle.css

It's not in a table, so it's not that that's causing the issue..... any clues??

Thanks in advance!

p.s. the page isn't at all finished by the way, and the bevelled menu that you can see that IS in the right place, is just an image to show where it should be! The menu causing the problems is about half way down the page......... tsk.

Haven't really checked your code, but having the menu as relative instead of absolute could be your problem. I never set anything to relative it's too hit and miss for my liking.

I would also check out "top: 800px" on your menu.

thanks g'kar!

the top: 800 worried me - but i've since changed it to top: 1 and still no movement!

if i change it to absolute positioning, it doesn't stay in the one place when the browser windows are resized - which isn't any good for me.

It's a very nice website apart from the menu, love thundercats. I think there is probably conflict between the js and CSS files. You don't really need to have the top anything, but that's obviously not the problem. You could do the menu again, also try and put your css file in the head section rather than where you have it.

Funky Kitten, the DHTML menu builder is about to be discontinued at CoffeeCup for many reasons, among them being that it's built on very old technology, and if you have visitios to your site using the Opera browser, they won't be able to see the menu at all.

CoffeeCup has a new CSS menu builder integrated in their HTML Editor. With it you can build menus that look excactly like the one you have, and the best part of it is that you don't have to edit any javascript in order to position it. And it works in all browsers.

We are hoping that this CSS menu also will appear as a standalone programme, but that is not certain yet.

Inger, why would the CSS menu be an advantage by having it as a standalone program?, also would this be free?
I must admit with the CSS menu it's far better than the DHTML one, I always found there were missing borders to it.

just a quick look...

the menu is a span id="themenu"

the css is not declared

themenu {
position: relative;
top: 1px;
left: 50px;
}
---should be---
#themenu {
position: relative;
top: 1px;
left: 50px;
}

Ha ha that is so obvious and I missed it.
