Re: IE drop down sub category menue problem

No problem.. I have just checked it out on IE8, FF & Chrome and can see all the sub and sub-sub categories fine (and they work as well).. Do you know the version of IE that is having the problems? I believe I saw a thread some time ago which had issues with IE6 only..

Also, what version of CP are you using? Thanks.

Re: IE drop down sub category menue problem

I'm using CP 2.9.2-single and IE6

TBH I wouldn't worry about IE6 - Even Google is stopping support for it in a few weeks.

Hi LaPine-

Any reason why you haven't upgraded to IE7 or IE8? I'm sure you come across lots of other web sites that look funny or don't work properly since they too don't support IE6. I recommend you upgrading for your own browsing benefit.

Like PointandStare said, IE6 has really been phased out and makes up a very small percentage of total web users. I wouldn't worry about it much.

Re: IE drop down sub category menue problem

Only Reason I'm concerned is that we have several computers that are running IE6 because they are using very old operating systems, because my place of business still runs accounting and access programs off of them on a daily basis to run reports. Also the clients who we would be marketing this product to are often not the most tech savvy people and my boss would like the program to work on every operating system. Also my statistical analysis provided by Google shows that 30% of visitors to our main site use IE6 so a large number of our clients will not be able to view the website properly. I don't mean to be rude but simply telling me I should not be concerned will not be a good enough answer for my boss.
