show_menu2 and IE8 compatability issue

(1/2) > >>

xoanon:
Hi,
I use the current code for show_menu2 and have no problems with IE6/7, Firefox etc. However when IE8 is used the compatability button needs to be pressed else the whole screen looks strange..
Please have a look at the code and let me know of any corrections...

<div class="navbar">
    <ul>
     <?php show_menu2(0, SM2_ROOT+1, SM2_ALL, SM2_ALL,'<li>[a][menu_title]
            [if(class==menu-expand){<!--[if IE 7]><!--></a><!--<![endif]--><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--><ul>}]
            [if(class!=menu-expand){</a>}]
            [if(class!=menu-last){</li>}]
            [if(class==menu-last){</li></ul><!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]-->}]','','',''); ?>
   </ul>

ps. the original template is multiflex-5n, and the link is http://gvaa.eu/wb or http://www.gvaa.eu

thanks in advance
tony

The solution lies in he CSS probably, not in the show_menu2. So maybe you can give us an URL to see what's happening.

just amended the original post...

>>> the original template is multiflex-5n,   and the link is http://gvaa.eu/wb    or   http://www.gvaa.eu  (currently am in the process of upgrading them to WB 2.8 and run them from two different service providers...)

Argos:
According to IE8 you have at least 2 javascript errors:

URI: http://www.morphis.id.au/wb/modules/wysiwyg_slider/frontend.js
URI: http://www.morphis.id.au/wb/pages/js/dd-drop/dddropdownpanel.js

But you load so much script before the menu that I'm not surprised there are conflicts. Look for the source of the trouble in these scripts, not in showmenu2.

IE8 is rather picky (and buggy sometimes), but maybe adding the line

--- Code: ---<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7">
--- End code ---
right under the "Content-Type" statement in your index.php HEAD, will make it behave better. But your template code has still quite a collection of all kinds of scripts... You'd better use jQuery for the effects you want to achieve.

the two script errors removed !! but the compatibility issue continues...
