HV Menu v5.5/Center problems in Firefox

**bernd** · 10-14-2006, 01:09 PM

1) Script Title: HV Menu v5.5

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

3) Describe problem:

I placed the menu in a table cell. the whole table is also placed in a table to center the whole site on the screen.

Problem:

In IE everything works fine. But Firefox and Mozilla both let the menu be
placed 10 Pixels left outside the rest of the page.

anybody an idea?
It must be a problem of this center stuff because
without this table around everything works fine in all browsers.

Here is the part of the site:

<body bgcolor="#a9a9a9" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

<script type='text/javascript'>

//HV Menu v5.411- by Ger Versluis (http://www.burmees.nl/)
//Submitted to Dynamic Drive (http://www.dynamicdrive.com)
//Visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com for this script and more

function Go(){return}

</script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='scripts/exmplmenu_var.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='scripts/menu_com.js'></script>
<noscript>Your browser does not support script</noscript>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" height="100%">
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="middle">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">

<tr>
<td valign="top" width="165">

<img src="images/headnavi.gif" alt="" height="128" width="165" align="top"></td>
<td valign="top" width="596"><img src="images/portfolio.gif" alt="" height="128" width="596" border="0"></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="165"><div id='MenuPos' style='position:relative; width:165; height:175;'></div></td>
<td bgcolor="#676060" align="center">
<iframe src="ipute.html" name="ipute" width="560" height="165" align="center" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" frameborder="0"></iframe>
</td> ......

Thanks for help

Remove position:relative; from:

Code:

<div id='MenuPos' style='position:relative; width:165; height:175;'>

var Arrws=['scripts/tri1.gif',5,10,'scripts/tridown1.gif',10,5,'scripts/trileft1.gif',5,10]; // Arrow source, width and height

function BeforeStart(){return}
function AfterBuild(){return}
function BeforeFirstOpen(){return}
function AfterCloseAll(){return}

I removed this also but anyway no effect.
The menu is still 10 px left

Hi Bernd,

Are you able to center the whole thing on screen with this menu?
I use this menu, too. And want to center my site but no luck.
Anyone can help please!

I'm having a similar (perhaps the same) problem with a website I'm working on.

In IE the page looks great. In Firefox and Safari the page is all messed up. The menu is about 5-10 pixels off center to the right. Any clues?

I had a this problem last year.

I found this bit of information in the hv menu config file.

The different ways that browsers interpret the pageX and pageY offset makes this feature difficult. I got the best results by putting the div inside a table, give the div the same dimensions as the first level menu, put a transparent image inside the div with again the same dimensions as the first level menu

<table>
<tr><td>
<div id='MenuPos' style='position:relative; width:102; height:102;'><img src='transparent.gif' width='102' height='102'></div>
</td></tr>
</table>

This solved the problem for me in firefox.
