As others have reported before me, the menu is slow in all browsers, particularly IE. What is worse is that the menu bar that I have created completely disappears (while it is trying to load onto a new page in the site). This is not acceptable for a "science and technology" site! If you could take a look at it, I would appreciate any help you can provide before I start over with something else.

Hello Marnie,

Following client reports about the slow rendering we have started to revise the rendering script of our menus.

We will have a package by the end of this week, we expect to have a beta version of the new package tomorrow.

Regards,

Hello,

It’s been a lot more work than we estimated which indeed got as delayed and that’s in nobody favor. This week is dedicated to full testing – all browsers and server models and as soon as we have a stable release we will let you know.

Regards,
Andrei

I'm interested to hear if the menus are now loading faster in IE8 with the beat fix. I'm still avoiding a purchased due to this problem.

Hi David,

Unfortunately IE 8 has a very slow rendering engine. If you are looking for speed, have a look at the Creative DW Menus:

I looked at that product but it uses flash. No good for what I do as the menus don't show up in IPADS and are not SEO friendly.

Hello David,

You are right on the fact that they don't work on IPad but I have to disagree with you on the SEO. The entire structure of the menu is kept in HTML and all links are available to search engines.

Nevertheless, I hope you will continue to follow our newsletters as I am sure you will like our future navigation systems.
