Been banging my head against this for a while. For some reason in my environment having installed the superfish module and set up two blocks on horizontal and one vertical, the vertical one works fine but the horizontal install doesn't show the children when you hover on an item that has children.

In firebug I can see that the children are there, and the UL gets made visible when I hover, but all I see is a box about three pixels high that shows up underneath the parent. I can even click on that little box. Adding more children doesn't make the box any bigger.

Using Firefox 3.6.3 and Safari 4.0.5 - same behavior in both.

What am I missing?

Let me add that it's working in Garland, but not in Zen or Forest Floor.

I know, this should be easy...

Hey Tom,

May I see it? I mean is it online?

Sure - it's at the bottom of my "About" page, just for you to see.

I guess that NavBar won't show children - is that correct? Drag...

As to the problem listed above, make sure you don't have a CSS declaration like:

#container .content {
overflow: hidden;
}

This will hide the menu children. If you change the line to overflow:visible; you should see the child menu if you're in Horizontal.

Yup that did it - thanks for the tip!

Thanks so much... your post has ended my struggle with superfish menus and the children being hidden!

in the waffles theme the line looked like this:

div.block div.content {
overflow: visible/*hidden*/;
