I have a page I am helping someone with. The pop up menus appear when you roll onto the relevant menu item but dont dissapear !!! why oh why ???

please look & let me know if you can help. heres the javacode in both an event & the functions

<a href="javascript:;" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('Image3','','../Images/Main%20Nav%20Images/3_Groups_hot.gif',1);MM_showHideLayers('AboutUs',' ','hide','Groups','','show','Projects','','hide',' Calendar','','hide')" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()"><img src="../Images/Main%20Nav%20Images/3_Groups.gif" name="Image3" width="134" height="20" border="0" id="Image3"></a><br>


function MM_swapImgRestore() { //v3.0
var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc;
}

function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
var p,i,x; if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n];
for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);
if(!x && d.getElementById) x=d.getElementById(n); return x;
}

function MM_swapImage() { //v3.0
var i,j=0,x,a=MM_swapImage.arguments; document.MM_sr=new Array; for(i=0;i<(a.length-2);i+=3)
if ((x=MM_findObj(a[i]))!=null){document.MM_sr[j++]=x; if(!x.oSrc) x.oSrc=x.src; x.src=a[i+2];}
}

please help - here is an example

this test page is better - am online working on this now - help appreciated - has to be done today if poss !!

http://www.xtab.co.uk/daresbury/aste...nya/test.shtml

p.s i have stripped content, graphics etc etc etc out in order to simplify task to get the menu problem sorted - the rest is fine when all plugged together this is just the menu code really. just in case anyone looks & tells me graphics are missing etc etc

I'm not sure which sections are supposed to have popups (if only a few, then great), but the problem you describe isn't happening in Firefox, just so you know

And looking at it in IE, no problem either.....

So

i have been working on the file - now got it so that menus dissapear when not needed & also have a timeout in so that when you hover onto menu & off they go away the problem now is that i cant get onto any but the top link layer

http://www.xtab.co.uk/daresbury/aste...ya/test2.shtml

it only needs to work in ie as it will finish on an intranet

code now looks like this
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--

if (init==true) with (navigator) {if ((appName=="Netscape")&&(parseInt(appVersion)==4)) {

else if (innerWidth!=document.MM_pgW || innerHeight!=document.MM_pgH) location.reload();
}
MM_reloadPage(true);

function clearmenus(){
MM_showHideLayers('aboutus','','hide','groups','', 'hide','projects','','hide','calendar','','hide');
}

cleartimer();

IDofTO = window.setTimeout('clearmenus()',500);

function cleartimer(){

& event code now has the showhide layer function in mouseout too
<a href="javascript:;" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('Image3','','../Images/Main%20Nav%20Images/3_Groups_hot.gif',1);MM_showHideLayers('AboutUs',' ','hide','Groups','','show','Projects','','hide',' Calendar','','hide')" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore();MM_showHideLayers( 'AboutUs','','hide','Groups','','hide','Projects', '','hide','Calendar','','hide')"><img src="../Images/Main%20Nav%20Images/3_Groups.gif" name="Image3" width="134" height="20" border="0" id="Image3"></a><br>


now just the last bit to fixx !! its not my code. coder is off sick & its due to be handed over tommorrow
