Menu keeps shrinking in width until page is loaded

Hello from the Netherlands.

I'm going to use the Milonic menu, but I have a problem.

I've got my menu sorted, but while the page loads (loads fast, but with a lot of images it can take some seconds), the menu keeps shrinking!

Example:

Site (built as table) is 800px wide. The menu should be like 790 wide.
If the page takes time to load the menu shrinks to 600px wide.
If I refresh the site loads in half a second and the menu is 790 wide.

I've tried to set
Code:
_menuOpenDelay=150;

to 0, doesn't help.

I'd like the menu to stop shrinking and keep the same width at all times, is this possible?

Regards, Rene

Hi,

Try setting a menuwidth in the main menu. You have placed overallwidth=780 in the style but it is not a style property, I don't believe, it's a menu property so would have to be stated in the menu property area, i.e. this section:

Code:
with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
      style=menuStyle;
      alwaysvisible=1;
