Hi
Does FF have something against Iframes?
I notice this especially when it cripples my css sub hover meny. The hovered sub menu is closing so fast you have no chance to click on the sub menu links.
It seems to have the same behaviour on Mac Safari
Ofcourse it works in perfectly fine IE.
Anyone noticed something similiar?

frames are not supported by all browsers. i don't use them and never have in FF so i can't say "frames don't work in FF", but i'm pretty sure they don't. and i don't explicitly remember someone saying that they don't neither. that's why nobody "suggests" using them.

unfortunately I am stuck with some of these "external" pages. With my old page using frames it works all fine tho, but then again I have no css menu there either.
So either I skip the sub menu system, creating new pure frame sites just for those pages (not preferably) or I just have to feel pitty for the FF users...

if you press "Linjetrafik" then you see the submenues are working all fine... but whenever there is an iframe under "Våra Resor" and Hotell&Paket - Budapest" the submenues acts up

When you validate, you get an entity error. The fact that they occur in the iframes may not be coincidence. Check that.
Of course, FF supports frames.

I wonder if it could be z-index related. The submenu ULs have a z-index of 1 whereas the iframe is auto. Maybe the iframe "covers" the menu in Fx.

smart...
so I guess there is no solution for FF, Safari and opera then
It only works if I remove the z-index of the menu... but then it appears underneath

ok-- a work around solution is to move down the iframe so it won´t interfere with the menu. Will add som fancy image on top and some links
thanks again ray

You still have 9 CSS errors in your code.

I really don´t believe the entities of the address may have anything to do with the layout being cross-browser friendly.
Even if I would change those errors the fact will remain that the site´s accesibility will be the same as it was before. The only result it will get is getting through the validating progress...
SAdly enough those sites are not in my possession so there is no change of me correcting those errors anyhows
but thanks anyways
