hi folks

i'm having a miserable time trying to get the Dynamic Drive Menu download to run in an ASP.NET world.

i have tried:

1. onload method of the body tag
2. <script
3. performing the cssdropdown.startchrome in the Page_Load (codebehind)

here are some .aspx snippets (menu bar renders but nothing else):

<body runat="server" id="MyMaster" onload="cssdropdown.startchrome('chromemenu')">
<div id="wrapper">
<script type="text/javascript">

cssdropdown.startchrome("chromemenu")

</script>
<form id="Form1" runat="server">

here is the code behind snippet:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

'Dim body As HtmlGenericControl = Page.Master.FindControl("MyMaster")
'body.Attributes.Add("onload", "cssdropdown.startchrome('chromemenu')")
:

my biggest problem is the LACK OF ANY ERRORs (either in the Firebug debugger -or- VS 2005 vb.net debugger)

i guess a bigger overall question is: I've done a Google search and have only found less than a dozen sites using this code. All of them looked like hell... (menus overlaying each other, javascript blowups, etc.)

Is this code ready for prime-time commercial development, or is this something I should be giving to me kids for .html development only.

thank and respectfully
