Ok, take a look at this screen shot:
I am trying to create menus for navigation (my test site is here: Menu Frames. (Click on the "Find Case" button to see this same page in action). I have got most things worked out for IE (I broke something in FireFox, and I haven't figured out exactly what).
From the image the css for all the menu DIVs is identical - the issue is that the floating DIV (the one at the top right) hangs over the border - I don't want that. It isn't doing that on the test DIVs that I have that are just on the page. What could be causing this? Also, it only happens on the menus where there is an HR tag just before the last menu item.
Here is the CSS code:
And why is it "Holly Hack" - shouldn't it be "Holy Hack"? Just a question.
Here is the HTML and JavaScript:

I am trying to create menus for navigation (my test site is here: Menu Frames. (Click on the "Find Case" button to see this same page in action). I have got most things worked out for IE (I broke something in FireFox, and I haven't figured out exactly what).
From the image the css for all the menu DIVs is identical - the issue is that the floating DIV (the one at the top right) hangs over the border - I don't want that. It isn't doing that on the test DIVs that I have that are just on the page. What could be causing this? Also, it only happens on the menus where there is an HR tag just before the last menu item.
Here is the CSS code:
Code:
/* careMenu.css */
#menuDiv ul {
margin:0;
padding:0;
list-style-type:none;
width:210px;
border-width: 3px;
border-style: outset;
border-color: #fcfcfc;
background-color:#eee;
}
#menuDiv ul li {
position: relative;
background:#eee;
overflow:visible;
}
#menuDiv ul li ul {
position: absolute;
width: 190px;
top: 0;
visibility: hidden;
background: #eee;
}
#menuDiv ul li a {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 8pt;
display: block;
overflow: auto;
padding: 2px 4px 2px 8px;
margin: 0 1px;
color: black;
background-color: #eee;
text-decoration: none;
}
#menuDiv a:hover {
color: white;
background-color: Highlight;
/* background-color: #b5e9ff; */
}
#menuDiv hr {
height:1px;
display:block;
margin: 0 !important;
margin: -6px 0;
color: #a8a8a8;
background-color:#798c7c;
border:0px;
}
#menuDiv .subfolderstyle {
padding-right: 0;
background: url(ArrowPopup.gif) no-repeat center right;
}
/* Holly Hack for IE \*/
* html #menuDiv ul li { float: left; height: 1%; }
* html #menuDiv ul li a { height: 1%; }
/* End of Holly Hack */And why is it "Holly Hack" - shouldn't it be "Holy Hack"? Just a question.
Here is the HTML and JavaScript:
Code:

shrink, or until the height gets larger and then it will increase the size
slightly. */[/teal]
