Get rid of:

onload=init;getcontent_height;Use:

<body onload="init();getcontent_height();">

ok i put that in and it still does the same thing..the drop down menu works in firefox, but not in internet explorer....any other suggestions?

btw..if you open the website in IE, youll see at the bottom of the screen it says "Error on page"...

Hi,
when you double click on the error, it should tell you where the error is, doesnt it? If there are multiple errors, you should be able to see the next/previous one by clicking the appropriate button in the msg.

at the bottom of the screen it says "Error on page"...

Well, I had assumed you had installed the scripts correctly to begin with and not deviated from the instructions or rewritten things at all. The 'Pop-it menu' script as now written on your page belongs in the body. Preferably right after the body tag. First get rid of:

<div id="popitmenu" onmouseover="clearhidemenu();" onmouseout="dynamichide(event)"></div><div id="popitmenu" onmouseover="clearhidemenu();" onmouseout="dynamichide(event)"></div><div id="popitmenu" onmouseover="clearhidemenu();" onmouseout="dynamichide(event)"></div>from the body section. In fact, replace the above with the script.

Then it should work in both browsers. You have another error on the page in FF but, if it is working as you like, I would not worry about it. It comes from the 'Scrollable content III' script on the page in the iframe.

Added Later:
I just had a look at the original script and it says to put it in the head. This is not the ideal place for it though. Your work around for that fact was to put those "popitmenu" divisions in the body. This fixed it for FF but broke it for IE. So, I take back my accusatory tone, sorry about that.
