This is a great module but unfortunately it appears not to function properly with blix and kubric themes. Works wonderfully in blue marine. In the former menus the sub menus are not selectable unless you hold your mouse down on the top link and then drag it over the dropdowns - if you release the mouse button before you have dragged over the dropdowns the drop downs are not selectable.

Any patch or resolution to this problem.

Title: Nice Menus appears not to work with all themes » Nice Menus appears not to work with all themes (and IE6)
Assigned: Unassigned » arno
Priority: Normal » Critical

I have Drupal 4.6.5 and installed Nice menus.

With FF 1.5, it doesn't work fine with the pushbutton theme (submenus are displayed, but they disappear even if the mouse is still over them). In IE6, they're not displayed at all.
With the bluemarine theme, it's OK with FF, but it still doesn't work in IE6 (the error messages are not usefull...).

I'd like to use drupal for a professional intranet, but only if a menu like this one exists... And only if it works with IE5.5 and 6 (sorry for that, but I can't choose !).

Thank you all for the great job done :)

try adding:

z-index:10;

to the nice-menu entry in the css file. This worked for sands which is derived from bluemarine.

ul.nice-menu,
ul.nice-menu ul {
  width: 150px; /* override this for a different menu width. WARNING: have to change in other places too */
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
  border-bottom: 1px #ccc solid;
}

Yes, it works now with FF and the pushbutton theme.
I now have to see if the "dropdown" stuff can solve the IE problem...

Thanks for your tip !

Erk... Doesn't work with FF1.5, but with 1.07 it's OK...

my site works with ff1.5. What theme are you using? What are the symptoms?

I don't understand. Yesterday it didn't work, but today it works...
I use pushbutton.
Sorry for my last message.
But IE still doesn't work ;)

Has anyone got this to work with any civicspace themes? I'm trying it at this url, http://tipnational.org/flexinode/table/3


A little ways down on the left you will see "chapters by state" which should be a dropdown of various states. In IE they do show but disappear, in Firefox they are hidden under other items on the page. I've tried to add z-index and see what else I could do, but I'm at a loss on this. Anyone have any luck?

There are some goofy things in the html source of that page that make the browsers job challenging, e.g. two sets of head and body tags.
