Hi,

I am using a UltraWebMenu and after a smooth upgrade of the whole web site from 2006 v3 to 2007 v3, in firefox (version 2.0.0.11) if the mouse cursor hovers on any of the top level menuitem which has no child items, the broswer will try to refresh the whole page which will keep flashing as long as the mouse cursor is kept hovering on the top menu item (no click any mouse button yet). and the selected item will be this menu item even without any mouse button clicked.

This behaviour will only presented in firefox , not in IE 7.0. I have tried to remove the WebAsyncRefreshPanel which wraps the whole page , but this did not help.

I did search this forum and google, did not find a cure yet, so please help,

Thank you very much in advance,

Thomas

Try setting FocusOnHover =False. That should cure the problem when EnhancedRendering=True

Infragistics says:

"You have to set the FocusOnHover WebMenu property to "false". By design it automatically activates the menu item on hover, which causes navigateToUrl to be called. This does not work in the same way on all browsers."

Seems to me it should never do this - they don't consider it a bug for some reason..

Thanks for your input, Jorge:

I did submit a incidence report to the Infragistics support , so far no solution from them yet.

But I did find something interesting myself:
For the webmenu in one page, if I set the property
EnhancedRendering="False"

, and remove all the client side event handling , then the webMenu appears to be OK in firefox, but it looks much worse in appearance.

But when I tried this trick in another page, the webmenu stops to respond to any itemclick() event at all.

So no perfect solution at this stage, and I think it might be a bug in their code.

Regards,

Thomas

I'm having the same issue when trying to make work the menu in Firefox.

If the top level MenuItem doesn't have any child the client itemclick() event is fired.

As I said in other post. WebMenu is not working in firefox, so I tried to find a way to make it work.

So I implemented to client ItemClick() event like this: (In the codebehind MenuItem.Tag = "url" )
function ItemClick(mn, id) {var item = igmenu_getItemById(id);

var tag = item.getTag();

//alert(tag);
if(tag != null)
{

location.href=tag;

}
return false;
}

Now the menu is working in Firefox, but... now the problem is that the first time you hover a top level Menu Item without children the ItemClick event is fired.

So, is it a bug?

Thomas, did you solve your problem? did your menu work using the targetUrl property in firefox?
Anyone as a webmenu working in Firefox ??

Thanks

Jorge
