Strange, it is working for me. Maybe you need to be using chrome. I found the emulator in the chrome web store.

Thanks,

I can appreciate that Android device behavior can be problematic since template functions a bit differently in every browser.... Native Samsung, Chrome, FireFox and LastPass. Phone, 7", 8" & 10" The 7" is detected as a phone.

Given the vast number of different Android devices, I can also see where it is difficult to impossible for developers to test every combination, unlike Apple devices which only have a handful of combinations.

Can't test on all devices, but there are options out there that work well on both platforms.. So I will continue to look for one because I can take my client's site live with the current menu..

Agreed!!! That's why I test on the physical devices.. Not to mention these emulators often show things shifted.. Like the site I'm using this template on, the hamburger icon shows as if it's overlaying the logo in the emulator, but it's in the right position on the actual device..

Yes Anne, I'll share, but so it's clear, I am willing to find a menu that doesn't fully validate using the HTML validation tool as long as the user interactions work, and it doesn't throw any PHP or javascript errors.. I know that the HTML validator is a requirement for you. However, I do not consider ALL the results gospel in this way because I know that the HTML validator OFTEN flags things as "invalid" that are in fact NOT.. So yes I'll share what I find for those folks using your template who want to eliminate usability issues with Android devices, but my objective is a WORKING error free menu not HTML VALIDATION..

Quick look at menu functionality using
generic 7", menu functionality good.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8": Chrome, FireFox, LastPass & Samsung browsers functionality good. ie: no menu to collapse

You didn't ask about this but noticed
Formatting: Firefox: logo.jpg does not resize in portrait mode so sale.jpg overlaps logo.jpg
Formatting: Chrome: logo.jpg does resize in portrait mode so no overlap of sale.jpg
Formatting: Product pages: individual product widths overlap in portrait mode.

Is the area below the slideshow part of the menu categories? Responsive formatting portrait vs landscape

my browser is fine, chrome also displays the default green template

I think the URL should have &template_switch_id=westminster_new

then it works...

Re: Westminster New v 1.3 UPDATE

I have found that the drop down menu also exhibits the same behaviour (disappearing as you scroll) on my iPad using Safari. I notice all the comments so far are android related, so thought I would chip in...

Good to know that it's NOT JUST the Androids having the issue..
