There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Customized Page Menu Bar not working properly in IE

So I wanted different colors for each page menu item & dropdown. And I found a great workaround - to put the color coding in the actual page menu title, like so:

<font color="#72BF44">All About<br>Us!</font>

which not only colors the individual page menu item, but splits it into two lines seamlessly.

And it displays not only the main menus, but the drop down menus perfectly - in Firefox.

But I've got ONE page menu item that is acting funky in IE, and I can't figure out why.

Here:

http://02e131e.netsolhost.com/site/

Roll over "Hear and See Sukey!" - in Firefox - perfect. In IE, the top menu item doesn't display.

Any thoughts?

Thanks much!

M.

the olny thing I see different is the '&' in the second menu title and it gets translated to a '& # 0 3 8 ;' (with no spaces. If I remove the spaces it gets translated back to the &)

Try removing the '&' and see if that makes a difference. IE is strange...

You aren't kidding.

Nope. I tried pulling the &, tried changing the color codes, font size, br's and more - nada.

Any other thoughts would be much appreciated.

Best,

M.

the cause of the problem is you have a <font> when you should have a </font> in the Sukey's Music

Why are you using a title with the font info on each line? When you use title='...' that is displayed when you hold the mouse over the item. It looks very bad on the site.
