We just recently upgraded to v3.6.3 from 3.07,(2-3 weeks ago) everything seems to be working fine until today. one of my members said he can not get the proper drop down to show. then 2 other firefox users said the same and sent me screen shots. ( this could have been not working for a week or even longer, it was just brought to my attention this afternoon.)

Ive gone through the code over and over and compared it with stock code and read threads on vbulletin.com about dropdowns. My code looks to be good, or I am missing something somewhere( more than likely the case).


The top nav bar is controlled in the header template.


Heres the explorer screen shot ( the way it is suppose to look)

The weather dropdown menu is on the top nav bar also but its 3 dropdowns to the right.

One of the members on the board said this might be an issue with fire fox as IE over looks them

<!--- instead of <!-- Extra dash

I made the changes and will see what happens

You are using html tags in upper case, but your doctype is xhtml. Firefox doesn't tolerate such html errors. Change <A> to <a> and </A> to </a> in template where that popup menu is.

Thanks CA I will fix those also today.

all code tags should be in lower case?
xhtml means lower case? I am not to familiar with html stuff.

Also thought I would note that the extra - fixed the org problem, according to the members using firefox.

Again thanks for the code tag tip also.

Yes, it should be in lower case and using upper case html tags in xhtml document is a error. IE ignores those errors, but Firefox doesn't.
