Hi there,
please take a look at my test page here:

http://cubo.theairlock.com/floridaparks.co.uk/

Basically when you first roll over the menus in IE (Windows), they open with a gap of a couple of inches in between the main meny and the sub menu. My data code is as follows:

-------
_menuCloseDelay=100; // The time delay for menus to remain visible on mouse out
_menuOpenDelay=50; // The time delay before menus open on mouse over
_subOffsetTop=0; // Sub menu top offset
_subOffsetLeft=0; // Sub menu left offset

with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
onbgcolor="transparent";
oncolor="transparent";
offbgcolor="transparent";
offcolor="transparent";
bordercolor="#000000";
borderstyle="solid";
borderwidth="0";
separatorcolor="transparent";
separatorsize="0";
separatorpadding="0";
padding="0";
margin="0";
// overfilter="randomdissolve(duration=0.3)";
// outfilter="randomdissolve(duration=0.3)";

Hi James,

I just had a look at your site using IE6 in Win2k. The menus seemed to open where you intend; I couldn't get the gap thing. What version of IE and version of Windows are you using... maybe it's specific to a particular setup.

I just viewed it in IE5.5 win98se and I don't see that space. Like your design, btw.

I'm not seeing that in Safari, either. The subs open directly on top of the main menu.
