CSS Dropdown menu for the header- With Categories!

[mask2011]

I've been trying to get the drop-down function to work, but seem to have problems in IE6.. When I view my test environment at:

http://www.stoelwinder.net/tryorbuy/

I can see the drop downs perfectly using Firefox, but IE6 just shows the top-menu items, no drop-down..

I've done a fair amount of customization and am a total newbie, but was pretty proud to have reached this point by customizing Acadame Unfortunately, it's now not 100% working anymore..

Any suggestions what could've caused this break? I've created a .htaccess in tryorbuy folder but no success, should it have been somewhere else? Thanks for your suggestions!

I guess I should put this at the top of the readme.txt... be sure to upload includes/csshover.htc.

Hi jettrue and this awesome community. First, props to jettrue for this awesome contribution, a quick and painless install, and it worked right off the bat. Looks fine in IE and Ffox.

So, with my project site, I have to make the navigation to ONLY be categories. I was first elated to see that someone on page 3 mention this request, but as I read through all the way to page 18, it was never responded to. My site is in a private IP space right now and is not viewable to the public.

That user who first brought up the question was jtschrade, and he said: "I want to edit this so that the drop down menu is only showing the categories in my catalog (each category name showing horizontally across the top of the website and not showing any of the other stuff listed in the default settings). I'm not sure how to to do that. Any help would be great."

And that is EXACTLY what I need my flyout navigation to do. I know that I can remove all the unnecessary links in the tpl file, and if I wanted to make the main categories be the ones going horizontally and the subcats vertically, don't I need to somehow edit the code in the tpl file below to that formats the HTML to comply with the css structure?

$menulist = str_replace('"level4"','"level5"',$menulist);^M
 $menulist = str_replace('"level3"','"level4"',$menulist);^M
 $menulist = str_replace('"level2"','"level3"',$menulist);^M
 $menulist = str_replace('"level1"','"level2"',$menulist);^M 
 $menulist = str_replace('<li class="submenu">','<li class="submenu">',$menulist);^M
 $menulist = str_replace("</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n</ul>\n","</li>\n</ul>\n",$menulist);^

Again, thanks for your great support and attitude towards this contribution, and I am thanking you in advance.

Hm, I should have read your post first in the last page, about Paul's mod. His looks good and all, but yours is much faster, and isn't buggy in IE6... but let me try his mod first (this one http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=523 ) and see if I can get it stable, thanks!

I'm just going to post what I did here, maybe someone can benefit. So basically I installed jettrue's contribution 100%, but I wanted the "content" of the navigation to only be categories. I looked at the other mod by Paul, but didn't like the sluggishness of it in IE6. But after a few tries, I got to keep the quick responsiveness of jettrue's contribution, and the no-hassle of the .htc and .htaccess nightmare that was required with Paul's mod.

What I did was, I installed jettrue's original contribution, got it working correctly. Then took Paul's mod, uploaded ONLY the template file (a lot of it was commented out), and the class file, and voila. It works perfectly in IE6 and Firefox.

Hey quick question, would anyone know why on the main page http://shop.dgbremner.com

The drop down menu is being cut off by that java slideshow in IE and not firefox?
