What?! I didn't check the code of the dropdown, but nowadays it's possible to create dropdown menus that don't even need javascript (well, except in IE 6 ;-) Of course you can't get effects like slowly fading in with pure CSS :hover, but it works. And for people with JS enabled, the effect can still be there. Personally, I'm using the "son of suckerfish" menu in several pages. That's just using nested <ul> / <li> with some :hover CSS. To have the fade-in effect, use the superfish menu [1] which is is based on the suckerfish menu and jquery. BTW: Making the dropdowns appear on mouseover instead of requiring a click would be a good idea IMHO.

BTW: Making the dropdowns appear on mouseover instead of requiring a click would be a good idea IMHO. We need javascript to load the menu from the central server anyway and we have no interest in duplicating the menus in every page for the couple of users with JS disabled.

Exactly. Regarding the mouseover instead of click: I had problems with this setting in some browsers during development ... -- Best Regards / S pozdravom, Pavol RUSNAK SUSE LINUX, s.r.o openSUSE Boosters Team Lihovarska 1060/12 PGP 0xA6917144 19000 Praha 9, CR prusnak[at]suse.cz http://www.suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+help@opensuse.org
