Menu loses focus on FireFox if underlying div is set to overflow:auto or scroll.rnrnI've searched the forum for this issue. It seems is a known bug since it's recomended two times to set the overflow property to its default value.rnrnThe site is http://www.redcatstudios.net/portfolio.php?idp=116.rnrnHope someone can help.

Hello Carlos,
I don’t know at what you are referring exactly by “the menu is losing focus”. What I saw on the website is that when you select one of the projects the “portfolio” button is not selected anymore.
The button persistency is handled automatically by our menu. It tests the link in the URL box with the links from the buttons and it highlights the one that matches. The URL from the portfolio button won’t match with the others and that’s why it doesn’t stay highlighted. I
think that you can change this if you don’t make the portfolio button go directly to the “Web Design” page. If you have only “portfolio.php” on the “Portfolio” button I think that it will be highlighted all the time the visitor is inside that section.
Regards,
Andrei Rinciog

Hello Andrei, thanks for replying.
By "losing its focus" I meant that, on Firefox (this doesn't happen on Internet Explorer) the user can't select any of the options of the "Portfolio" menu beyond "web design" and "legal web sites". All the other options are not highlighted when hovered and the menu pulls up instead, as if the user had moved the mouse away from the menu.
This behaviour only apperars when I set the div element that is underneath the menu to "overflow: auto".
I'll be waiting for your reply.
Regards, Carlos.

Hello again,
I understand the problem now, didn’t noticed it the first time I looked.
This is a Firefox problem, it doesn’t handle well the usage of “wmode=transparent” and “overflow:auto/scroll”. Unfortunately there isn’t an easy fix for this. I’ve searched the internet again (we had this reported a while back also) and still I couldn’t find any solutions or signs that Mozilla fixed this bug. The only solutions that I could find is to either use “bgcolor:transparent” instead of wmode (this is not tested, found it only in one forum and you can’t use with the menus) or to use iFrames. Here’s an article about this: http://www.quantumslip.com/archives/2006/09/flash_wmode_scr.html
If you find any other solution please post it here :D.
Regards,
Andrei
