Works fine for me on 4.0.6

Also a tip for those who have installed. IE7 will fill up the whole horizantal screen for the sub menu drop downs. In the template emu_tabs, find

Find

<ul class="popupbody popuphover">

Replace with

<ul class="popupbody popuphover" style="width:auto;">

Hope it helps.

This is my main issue, why isn't the mouse over for drop down tabs the same? Makes the Navbar look off.

Is there any way to fix this?

[Russ_T]

Does anyone have any good working examples please?
