hey.

ive got a problem with my javascript.
i made a layout in photoshop of my site, saved it, put it into dreamweaver and then found the table cell that i wanted to use to place my java script menu that i built using

Code:

http://www.codethat.com/builder/

now i had problems firstly placing the code in the cell i wanted because the menu would not stay in that cell but instead in the very top left hand corner, i went into the app and changed the positioning of it. tried again and it worked fine, but only in firefox. it still has the same problem in IE...

my code:

<html>
<head>

<title>template final</title>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
/**script links**/
<link href="../stitrans.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<script language="javascript" src="../codethatsdk.js"></script>
<script language="javascript" src="../codethatmenustd.js"></script>
<script language="javascript1.2" src="../menu.js"></script>

/**script links end**/

First, I can't tell what the problem is becasue you haven't included the actual scripts and I don't feel like searching other sites just to find a script which might not be of the same version you used, kinda messes things up for both of us.

Second, please use the [code ][/code ] tags when posting HTML or scripts more than a few rows. This not only prevents the forum from altering the code but it also looks better.

From what I can tell, the script writes the menu directly to the page at the place in the code it was called from so codewise everything can be ok.
you said you changed the position of the menu, where?
It probably has something to do with absolute or relative positioning of tags...

Sorry for all the critisism, I'm not a moderator or anything but I try to do my part in making these forums a nice place
