    Suckerfish Menu and IE 7 Compatibility Issues (of course)

    I've since followed Mike's suggestion and have even created seperate <ul> values for each drop-down. The problem now, however, is that whilst I've managed to align it in IE7, it's incorrectly aligned in FF!!!!!! If you have both browsers, please take a look at...

    Suckerfish Menu and IE 7 Compatibility Issues (of course)

    Thank you, Mike. I'm away from my dev computer at the moment so I'll look into this as soon as I get back to it. [] www.followtheboat.com [] *tales from the high seas*

    Suckerfish Menu and IE 7 Compatibility Issues (of course)

    I've been happily designing my site in FF and also checking in IE 6 and all has been fine with my 3 level suckerfish menu. Then I jumped on someone's computer to view it in IE 7, and of course there are the usual compatibility issues! To view the work in progress please check out...

    How do I send email when on the move (no ISP mail server)

    Thanks, Smah. Will look into this. In the meantime I have actually followed Jock's advice and it all works rather well. Thank you both.

    How do I send email when on the move (no ISP mail server)

    Hmmm....just been thinking about this a bit further and it actually might make some sense. I will look into this, Jock. Thanks!

    How do I send email when on the move (no ISP mail server)

    Hi Jock, This is not a bad work-around but it's not really what I'm after as this requires too much repeated admin (address contacts, backing-up etc). I'm pretty sure I can set up localhost to send my email from Thunderbird, or use a third party mail server app to act as my smtp server......

    How do I send email when on the move (no ISP mail server)

    Hi, A basic question, perhaps: I'm always on the move and don't have an outgoing mail server for Thunderbird to log in to, so I can't send email (I can receive ok). I'm running XP Pro so am I able to set my laptop up so that it acts as its own SMTP server? What would be the best way to do...

    Allow visitor to change background color and other CSS properties

    Tried asking this in CSS forum but this is a server-side issue, I'm led to believe... I'd like to allow the site visitor to select their own background color or image. How do I go about doing this? Can I do this with ASP or is this a JScript thing? Thanks in advance....

    Anyone know how you allow a site visitor to select their own background color or image for their entire visitor session?

    ASP search tool for website

    Hehe, funnily enough I'd already downloaded the trial version of this and was quite impressed. The problem is that I have far more than 50 pages, though it is only for a personal website so the cost is quite prohibitive at the moment, hence my question about other solutions. Thanks for the...

    Newbie question - mapping my CSS file from different directory levels

    Tarwn, That last bit of code is P R E C I S E L Y what I was looking for. I used to program with some guys who knew their ASP but I knew very little. However after I left them I continued to use this really simple and obvious command for some years and then I forgot it. It must be so obvious...

    Newbie question - mapping my CSS file from different directory levels

    Don't I put something like <% virtualpath="http://www....." %> at the top of the page and then write <% virtualpath= %> just before the link in question? Please, this must be a real simple question for you asp experts to answer! Thanks

    Newbie question - mapping my CSS file from different directory levels

    Hello, I'm building a website using .asp pages, only because I know a very small amount of ASP and have used a few simple commands to my benefit. One such command I have now forgotten! I haven't used it in years but it's a really simple problem and I'm hoping someone can answer this in 2...

    ASP search tool for website

    Hi Is anyone aware of any free ASP-based search tools for websites that don't require hosting by a third party? There are a couple of non-asp search tools but they are normally restricted to 50 pages.

    Why does FF wrap content in layer over itself?

    IDIOT! The last item was set to 'absolute', not 'relative'. Do you know how long I've been looking for the solution to this problem? Grrrrr!

    Why does FF wrap content in layer over itself?

    If you look at this link and compare it between FF and IE, you'll see the content displays ok in IE but in FF the menu titles wrap at the end so the last menu entry (Library) is placed on top of the first one (Home). I've left the border on the container layer for the menu. Any clues? .menu...
