1) Script Title: Top Navigational Menu

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/topmen3/index.htm

3) Describe problem: The script works fine when I look at my webpage on Firefox and Safari. However, Internet Explorer 6 won't drop down the menu. The box changes color when the cursor hovers over it, but nothing drops down. Explorer says there is an error on the page. I ran my html through a validator, and that checked out ok. I also checked the sample menus in Internet Explorer, and they worked fine. Any suggestions of what to check? I'm fairly new to this. I re-downloaded and uploaded all of the files to the server, but no luck. Any suggestions? Thanks

Your page is splitting the lines out when it's rendered
Double check that the following are all on the same line

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<script type="text/javascript"
src="../MainMenu/sniffer.js">


<script type="text/javascript"
src="../MainMenu/custom.js">

Something to try

Hey, no luck with the above. It still works in Firefox and Safari, but not IE6. An error message appears "Runtime Error, Line 2 Error: Invalid property code".
The files that came with the script have a 'menu_ie4', and 'menu_ie5', could there be something I am missing?

Fixed it!!! Kind of embarrassing though. I figured it was one of the values that I had changed in the custom file, so starting with the default demo menu, I changed a few variable at a time until it no longer worked. The reason: Internet Explorer does not recognize "grey" as a color. :o Lesson learned.
