This vertical thing is really annoying me, it seems to happen in Netscape
6.2 and Mozilla 1.0 (but not 1.1). I have no idea what is causing it as it
works correctly in even Netscape 4.7 the beast of all beasts! The menu was
designed in Fireworks 3, but I have gone over the code with a fine tooth
comb and can't see a reason for it to do what it is doing. I might see if
its a css attribute thats causing the trouble.

Yeah I agree, its slow in IE 6 also. Would the same effect be doable in
CSS?
Thanks for all the feedback,
Michael.
