View Full Version : Any Apple Users able to help please?

Because I don't have access to an Apple to check it out for myself I am asking any of you Apple users out there to give me a quick hand if you can spare a couple of minutes please?

1) Script Title: Jim's DHTML Menu V5.7

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/jimmenu/index.htm

3) Describe problem:

According to the info on the Jims Menu page in DD it is compatible with Safari so not sure if it is a script problem - here is the background.

I am using Jims menu on several websites, however a friend that uses an Apple computer running OS10 has told me that the menu does not function correctly for them.

Apparently the dropdowns don't open so they can't access the relevant pages.

I am trying to work out if this is something that is either
- peculiar to their computer, or
- peculiar to apple os, or
- something that I have done while installing the menu (I dont expect you to solve this part! ;) )

If you are an Apple user please check out any of the links below and let me know how the menu functions on your system please. :D

First off, you need to find out what browser your friend is using.The browser is of more concern than the OS. Safari is the mac default, but s/he could be using a wide number of browsers.

thanks for that, I should of mentioned it of course.

They are using Safari as their browser.

Cheers,

hope this helps.
Opera and IE also fail

THANKS Neil!!!!

Fantastic of you to make that much effort, even including screenshots - I am overwhelmed.
Interesting how some work while others are totally dreadful???
When you say they failed in Opera and IE also, I assume they were also on an Apple system? I ask because they work fine on the various Windows-based IE and Firefox units that I have looked at.

Once more I can't thank you enough for your effort.

A VERY appreciative PC user ;)
