Information

This one is based on a menu I produced recently for CSSplay but the CSSSplay version had its limitations in that it had to use a width value for the menu to work in IE6.

This 'javascript' version overcomes this problem.

I say javascript but it actually uses a Microsoft expression in the IE6 only sylesheet to work out the width of the containing div#pro_linedrop.

I have seen many examples of using expressions to work out the width of the browser window, but not the width of an element, so had to play around with this a little to get it to work.

Tested in IE6, IE7, Firefox, Opera, Netscape, Mozilla, Safari (PC) and Safari (iPod Touch).
