Seems to be a bug with screenposition

Site: http://www.kalefoto.fi/pub/milonic/

I have a serious problem with menu positioning. This seems to be a bug (or my mistake) but theres something that it should not do.

The menu chages position.
On the first load, the menu positions itself ok. But when the page is
reloaded, the menu chages position.

The position attributes are:
screenposition="center";
left="offset=-300";
top="offset=150";

And on reload, the offsets are removed.

Theres more problem description in the site.. and the version is RC11.0
And still doesn't work.

Any ideas? I think my <div align=center> is causing the problem but it shouldn't....

Problem solved!

Guys at support fixed this problem with RC11, so the previous post was waste of time...

But big thanks for milonic support.. everything works now just fine. And responce came quite fast!

What was the problem/solution?

Somehow I managed to upload again the same version "Version 5.0 Release Candidate 11.0 Built: Wednesday September 17 2003 - 14:13"
Which didn't have the bugfix. But Andy Woolley sent me the correct version "... September 22 2003 - 14:57" which works..

But I bet that Andy can tell better, what the problem and solution was.. I'm just a dummy customer ;)

And I just might add that when the manuals for running php and mysql commands in the menu arrays comes out... this menu is absolutely the greatest!

That version is new since Saturday! The boss has been busy (as usual).

The problem was related to some followscrolling mods that we made a while ago. These had a knock on effect on screenposition.

What was happening, was, the offset was being deleted and so the menu didn't know where it should go. At first it was told to move to the offset, then the offset value was removed and then the menu didn't know about the offset so it appeared to ignore the offset.

Cheers

I wondered if the very top offset was related because it registers on vertical but not horizontal. :idea:
