Hey all, I hope someone can help me out with this. I can't seem to figure out what the *hell* is going on.

Even when I use the default CSS, the menus will just NOT pop down. Works fine in every other browser but IE6.

If someone could take a look at this with me, I can even provide FTP info and we can work together on AIM or something. I would really appreciate this.

The site is www.wordsmittenonline.com.

Works GREAT in FF, Opera, Safari, IE7.

Nothing works in IE6, no pop downs at all.

Please test and report. I appreciate it.

Unfortunately, you're coming up against the main problem facing web developers worldwide: IE6 is fundamentally broken and it's all Microsoft's fault.

We're currently dealing with a similar issue, I will post as soon as I've fixed the problem.

Here's a version of the code that works for me on Drupal 5.1, even for crap browsers like IE6. (I can't post this as an attached file, I'm afraid... and haven't had time to make patches.)

To get it to work, I had to remove the conditional IE < 7 only javascript inclusion, so if anyone can suggest a clean way to achieve that, let me know! Otherwise, thanks very much to jakeg for creating such a handy little module. Any suggestions are welcome. Cheers,

Dave

I'm testing nice_menus-egressive20070304.tgz and most of it works, but I have issues with the second level menus in IE6 (not showing up at all). But I have my own nice_menus.css (from Drupal 4.7) and I have to check if it's my fault or not.

I changed to the nice_menus.css in egressive20070304 and still have the same issue of second level menu not showing in IE6 (but, of course, works perfectly in Firefox and Safari *sigh*). I will continue to investigate this. (Its the hotizontal menu I'm using.)

I changed the js to the one from JamesSharpe's patch here and that works just fine in IE6! And it got those nice slidings as a bonus. :)
