NorTree borders corrupted.

Post by norman »

A NorTree user was getting a corrupted display of the borders around the menu cells.

It was found that the following line, right at the top of their Act_Primary was causing this.

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
This line isn't part of any Actinic Template and was probably added by a WYSIWYG HTML editor.

Removing it allowed the menu to function properly.

If anyone knows why we'd all love to know.

I have found that it is 4.01 that causes the corrupt borders, lower versions work ok

has anyone solved this one? ive been highly advised to use 4.01

Do you have a link to a page with this problem so I can see it happening (and check that the site has donated).

I don't know what to suggest. You want to use 4.01 and NorTree (or at least the DHTML part of it - that I didn't write) seems to fail when you do so.

I can see no workaround other than not to make this declaration, or to switch to another Menu (NorCascade or Collapso perhaps).
