Hi -

I thought the issue might be special characters. If I inserted a special character in a category I could make the menu disappear in the test site. I tried removing all special characters from the categories in the actual site and now I see the menu in IE 6 (incorrectly sized). I still don't see the menu at all in FF. I open to suggestions.

The problem looks to be in my main.tpl.php and css stylesheet. I copied these files over from the site that works and I can now see my menu! Now I just need to modify them line by line so they fit back into the style of the site and see if I can figure out which line is that breaks the menu.

I figured out the problem. It is in the doc type statement.

This statement works --- <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional">

This statement cause problems --- <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

You can see the menu here -- Your International Flag Source - The Map Shop : All sizes of outdoor, indoor and miniature international flags

My next question. Since the "By Country" is so long, is there a way to have it display say 15 rows and then have the fly out part scroll to display the rest of the items? I've seen this in other fly outs.
