(doesnt) work with theme Zen

sorry. i read the readme.txt n fixed the problem by putting position: absolute.

but another problem arised. the nice menu overlaps the block below it. how to fix it?

thanks.

What do you mean by "overlaps the block below it"? Do you have the site live so we can see or at least a screenshot?

Also, moving this to theme compat and support.

I'm having the same problem. Attached are two screenshots. The "before" one is before changing position to absolute (fresh install of both zen and nice menus), the "after" one is after changing position to absolute. I've played around with it for a while, but I can't seem to find the magic to fix it. Looks the same on FF2 and IE7.

Which version of Zen are you using? I'll need to install and test this locally when I get a chance.

duh... sorry about that, I should have included that info in the post. I've been coding for hours and I'm just a little bit punchy. I just downloaded a fresh zen official release 5.x-1.0 and a fresh nice_menus official release 5.x-1.2 and installed on a fresh D5.7 instance. If you need anything else just let me know.

EDIT: also, put the block in the header region with the default weight of 0 and set block name to <none>. can't think of anything else atm. Also, if you look closely, there appears to be something funky going on with the text-decoration-- there's bullets and the arrows superimposed on the list items. I'm sure it's something stupid simple, but I need another pair of eyes, cause I'm just not seeing it.

Hey there WorldFallz. Is this issue still around or did you find a fix? I haven't had any time to even look at my contrib queue for a while and it will be another two weeks until I'll get some time.

hi add1sun-- I've not had time either I'm afraid. I kept my lucid menus for the time being. As soon as I get some spare cycles I'll definitely check this out and hopefully post a patch and/or solution for ya if I can figure out what the problem is.

My "must look at" list is growing longer and longer now that i'm finally becoming fluent in drupal and can start contributing back, lol.

try this in your icons.css file...

#block-nice_menus-1 .content{
margin-bottom:60px;
text-align: left;

}
#block-nice_menus-1 li a {

}

#block-nice_menus-1 .content ul li {
list-style-image: none;
list-style: none;
width:120px;
margin-left:2px;
background-color:#E1ECF2;
border-right:1px solid #9A9A9A;
border-bottom:1px solid #9A9A9A;

}

AWESOME-- this worked. Thank you so much! Now I just have to tweak for my color scheme.

I was looking at overflow and float issues-- what is it about your css above that fixed it? I commented out the width line, and that didn't seem to make a diff.

I'm very curious to understand why this fixed the problem....

I'm going to go ahead and marked this fixed.
