The first two choices on the menu are dropdown menus, but it doesn’t work. They’re not behind the photo, because I tried removing the whole layer of the photo too.

Any ideas?.
Thanks you very much

P.S.
I have modified the css and the menus are <ul> on the html code.

Your menu looks excellent. Good job ” title=”Cheesy” />

I think your problems are caused by IE7 choking on the HTML comments before your DOCTYPE. The first part of the document always has to be the DOCTYPE or the browser has to guess which DOCTYPE it is, which in the case of IE7 is quirks mode which the menu won’t work with.

[/code:i8dhqf4k]

If that doesn’t work, then let me know and I’ll take a closer look for you.

Well, I’m sorry to ask something no related with your plugin, but I had no idea what was going on with the site anymore..

Thanks, it’s been a pain in the ar** to setup, I had no idea of css, php and wordpress when I started setting this thing up ( bosses orders ), but now… I still have no idea and I feel even more confused..

Thanks again for the help, now works perfectly, and I hope to finish the setup of the site in russian for the weekend.

Cheers
Fabian

Most of the questions posted here have nothing to do with the plugin! Almost all problems are related to other coding problems unrelated to the plugin itself.

Kasper – what exactly is wrong? Your menu seems to be working fine for me.

Well it works perfectly in Safari and Firefox plus IE6, but in IE7 it doesn’t show at all.

Kasper – Your problem is probably caused by the reset.css file. Resetting all of your CSS properties like that is generally not a good idea.

Removing the UL aand LI from the following code in your reset.css file might fix it. If it doesn’t then post back here and I’ll take a closer look for you.

[code:1p1w1p8r]strike, strong, sub, sup, tt, var,
b, u, i, center,
dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li,
fieldset, form, label, legend,
table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, tr, th, td {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
outline: 0;
background: transparent;
}
[code][/code:1p1w1p8r]
