Does anyone have an idea as to what I can do to stop my 'Fruit' and 'Vegetables' drop down menus from popping up when my mouse leaves the drop down menu and runs over my web pages. I set the Special FX to show the list of fruit and vegetables when the mouse is over the word "FRUIT' or 'Vegetables' It's rather annoying to have the drop down menus appear when you don't want to see them. I realize the list of fruit is long but, the list of vegetables is shorter and the list pops up when the mouse runs over the web page. Here's the website: http://www.roysestwincityproduce.com

My guess is you have one of the elements in your groups still set as an individual to a mouseover effect.

So even while it is unseen it reacts.

Go through the mouseover effects list and see if you can find it.

I've looked over the mouseover effects. I'm not sure of what you mean by one of the elements set as an individual. Can you explain more?

These menus are hard to debug without access to the project file. Is the project file auto-backed up to your site? If so, what name are you using?

Failing that, and if none of the other replies here help, please email me your .ims project file and I'll take a closer look. Email address is in my public profile.

As Brucee says these are hard to debug without the code.

But looking at it I would guess that you have one of your menu groups set to show itself when moused over.

Because of the whole overlapping effect required when setting these up it can be a bear to get the mouse over effects right... especially when paired with the grouping.

Bruces's tutorial on it gives a great step by step. It may just be easier to redo those two buttons with clean code rather than trying to monkey with the existing.
