ok, i am a little step further with my problem (above post): it seems like there is some issue with DDSPEED. when i set DDSPEED to < 2 everything works fine but any value above 2 will lead to some (not wanted) space below the menu bar, the size of this area changes with the value of DDSPEED (a value of DDSPEED = 100 will leave an area the size of Navigation Item 1 and 2 for example)… a value of DDSPEED = 2 and DDTIMER = 35 will lead to an acceptable result. i still would be interested in your opinion if there is any (other) way to fix this, otherwise a comment in the .js file might be helpful.

Thanks a lot for this nice looking piece of work, Michael… I played around with this script today and noticed that after the menu slides down and up again, there’s a small 4 px wide area underneath it… you can check this easily if you set a black background or turn opacity to 1 and take away c.style.opacity = currh / c.maxh; and // c.style.filter = ‘alpha(opacity=’ + (currh * 100 / c.maxh) + ‘)’;… i checked c.style.height = currh + (dist * d) + ‘px’ for this and actually this variable never drops below 4px… i’ll keep on working it, but maybe you have an idea why that is and can help me out… hope to hear from you <- using FF3/SeaMonkey

@Lauren - That doesn’t make much sense unless there is a JavaScript conflict of some sort. There is nothing specific to ASP that should cause a problem. Shoot me an email with a link if the site is external and I will dig into it.

Hi! Excellent script, but have a question if you have the time to answer. I used the src code and scripts for the sub-sub menu, got it working on it’s own. As soon as I use it as an include file in .asp it stops working. Any suggestions? I had used your sub menu dropdown and it was great, then the client needed sub-sub menu dropdown, so had to change and now can’t get it working when it is included.

@ignacio - It depends on what links you will including in the dropdown. Shoot me an email with the details/link and I will point you in the right direction.
