View Full Version : Unselectable dropdown list

1) Script Title: AnyLink CSS Menu v2.0
2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...anylinkcssmenu.js
3) Describe problem:
I would appreciate any help you can offer.
I have tried versions of IE 8, Firefox and Chrome.
I have instances when a dropdown list is displayed but any item on it are unselectable.

I have both horizontal and vertical menus, some of the menu items have links to dropdown lists managed via AnyLink CSS Menu v2.0

The "odd" thing is that not every dropdown list behaves correctly. Only one of the menu items on my "horitontal bar" with a dropdown list works correctly. The other items appear but when the mouse is moved (so select an item off the list) the list disappears as soon as the mouse is over it. Thus making the dropdown list unselectable and unsuable.
I would appreciate some help in identifying and solving this anomally?

My menus can be found on my "home" page with the problems at http://www.nineoaks-fisheries.co.uk/index.html.
Items with a dropdown list will be shown with a yellow background when the mouse is hovered or moved over a menu item.

All lists of menu choices have unique names and the <Div> .... </Div> code of each drop down list is at the bottom of the form code immediately before the </body> statement.
I have tried many values for "duration" in the anylinkcssmenu.js from 100 up to 3500 without being able to successfully choose an item off the drop down lists before they disappear.
I am perplexed, can you help?

1) Script title: AnyLink CSS v2.2

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

3) Describe problem:

I'm having the exactly the same issue as the OP, but only in Internet Explorer 7/8. No problems in Firefox, Chrome, or Safari. I've tried turning the shadowdiv on, off; adjusting the duration; disabling all the other scripts on the page; fussing with stylesheets; all the menu divs at the bottom; etc etc. Any ideas would be awesome.. :confused:

I figured this problem out, at least for my situation. All of AnyLink's script files must be called before the
</head> tag. I had all of my scripts before the
</body> tag, to speed up the load time for my pages.

Now the menu is working perfectly in all browsers.
