Sometimes it appears, sometimes it doesn't for me. With scripting
disabled the menu doesn't appear and would imagine this to be the case
in most text-only and audio browsers.

Enough leg-pulling. When it does appear (js enabled browser) the menu
changes position depending on where I hover the cursor in both ie6 and
mozilla 1.4.
The question is probably better addressed to the people who wrote the
script, but I doubt you would get very far until you can show, within
reason, that it is not your html/css at fault; and this can't be done
until you validate your page.

exactly,this menu does not work for Opera, opera is a browser right? hence
its your browser..
At the moment i havent fixed it for all browsers.. Will do soon, also thanks
for the link to that netscape website, that menu will probably come in
useful. Cheers Toby
