Dear All,

here (www.priorum.ru/) I tried to make a three level menu where the main level is Joomla default menu, and the other two are made with ARI Ext. They all are in the same USER3 position, the template is made with Artisteer.

With the support of this forum members, I have managed to exclude space between menus (that ones, vertically). I slightly changed the way it looks, so generally now I feel it is okay.

However, in IE I noticed strange thing - the submenu items while being hovered just disappear in a second or two so I have no chance to click any sublevel menu but first or second. In Firefox and Chrome everything is perfect.

I have attached css for the menu as well as module settings. I would be extremely grateful for helping me resolve IE issue.

Please be informed that I am not a code-friendly person I am an ordinary person who loves Joomla and is limited to the knowledge about components and modules only, and always afraid of php and the like. But I am trying to cope with my fear

Thank you a lot in advance!

Hello,

The menu also has problem in FireFox, the first main menu item is shifted to right. It happens due to problem with site template markup and styles. It can be fixed if add the following CSS rules:



Regarding IE issue, it seems this problem with content in <div class="art-BlockContent-body"> block and this is site template problem. You can investigate it in more details with help IEDevToolBar extension for IE browser.

Many thanks for your invaluable help! Aligning right is solved, now it does look good - no shifting at all.

As per IE issue - thank you for the hint! I will take appropriate actions!

Tried many other menu modules but they all have the same problem - did not show properly inside body in IE.

Made some changes to template look and relied upon J! menu module. It works as I want - no disappearing in IE, everyhting stable and good enough.

Cant say I got what I wanted by switching to joomla menu - the whole idea was having different module as a menu right down the main menu. This is totally my template's weakness and has no relation to AriExtmenu.

Thank you guys for support!

Hello Joomla! Developers.

I was having the same problem, and I got a cool work around for IE that solved my problem (which I believe is also yours)...

On file <root>\modules\mod_ariextmenu\kernel\ExtMenu\class.ExtMenu.php (line 75 or so ), we have:
sprintf('Ext.onReady(function() { new Ext.ux.Menu("' . $id . '", %1$s); Ext.get("' . $id . '").select(".ux-menu-sub").removeClass("ux-menu-init-hidden"); });',

Change it to:
sprintf('(function($) { $(document).ready( function() { new Ext.ux.Menu("' . $id . '", %1$s); Ext.get("' . $id . '").select(".ux-menu-sub").removeClass("ux-menu-init-hidden"); }); } ) ( jQuery );',


(PS: don't forget to import jQuery.js )

Hope this helps everyone...
Best of Luck!

Hello,

The latest version of the module uses MooTools "ready" event (if MooTools library is loaded) to load menu and avoid conflict with MooTools and ExtJS libraries in IE. It doesn't require to load jQuery library.
