Hello Joseph,
The menus created with Creative DW Drop Down/Vertical/Tabbed Menu will work on IE6 and IE7 as well as Safari, Firefox, Opera, Camino, Mozilla, actually it will work with all the latest browsers. If you test you menu with IE5 on MAC you probably need to know that is a 10 year old browser, Microsoft doesnt offer support IE5 since 2003,it had been replaced by IE6 in 2001 , and every recent site will be rendered badly including apple.com & msn.com.
If you want I can send you screenshots with the menu in IE6 and IE7 on Windows Vista & XP.
Regards,
Catalin Serban

HI Dave,
It is very stange what is happening to you because you shuldnt have the text links issue? on onther browsers,besides IE Mac.
In order for us to better help you, it would be great if you could send us the link to your site or send it as an attachment to this email, but firstly, please check if you have Flash installed on your computer. One of the main reasons why you can see only links instead of the menu is this.
Another reason may be that you dont have the Includes? folder in the root of you web site or some important files are missing . This is a directory generated when the menu is placed on the page and it has to contain all the assets for the menu.
And last, you should check if you have the buildmenu() function at the bottom of your webpage. This is the function that triggers menu rendering on the page.
Regards,
Catalin Serban

thanks for the reply ? definitely have the flash player installed. i even re-installed a new version to make sure. and i have the build function () command at the bottom. there must be a conflict in the code and location of assets. i am just building the site, so am not live w/ it yet. i've encountered this problem while testing locally.
is there an example of a correct directory to compare to my root folder structure?

<p>Hello,<br />
This folder is created automatically by the extension in the root of your website. The extension adds files to this folder (scripts, skins etc).</p>
<p>If the HTML file, which contains the menu, is in the root of your website (E.G.: index.html), then you should have the following scripts included in your document:</p>
<p><script type="text/javascript" src="includes/Creative Menus/menuDisplay.js"></script><br />
<script type="text/javascript" src="includes/Creative Menus/swfobject.js"></script></p>
<p>And the structure should be something like:</p>
<img src="http://www.extendstudio.com/forum-img/structure.jpg" />

No dice. Thanks for your response, though.
Code checks out, folder structure checks out. I removed the plug-in and re-installed it. Spent hours configuring and re-configuring to accommodate this product's features. Too bad, since the demos look great.
I'm chalking this one up as a loss and moving on to something else.

Hey - got everything to work. Totally a user error! I was inadvertently deleting the spacer.gif file in the table where I was inserting the menu. Didn't even realize it. Everything works just fine now. Feel free to remove my earlier post ? I would if I could!
Thanks for your reponses.
