Support Case Month: May 2012
I added a shadow to my menu. At some point I noticed that there was a thin line border around the shadow area. I cannot figure out what is causing this. The online Knowledge base did not pull up anything relevant with keywords shadow and border.

The image does not exist online. Hence Firefox is not showing the image at all and the ads go behind the menu, while IE and Chrome show the “image not found”, so the ads move downwards, but you also see the “border” behind the menu:
Simply make sure the image exists online in order to fix the problem:

Well, Yippy at last! I finally read the two messages from you c a r e f u l l y, after a long day of replacing a lot of old style code and fixing a bunch of messes that the process created.
You diagnosed correctly – the missing image caused the overlap problem in Firefox and also created a missing image box in IE9 and Chrome.
It is now clear that the AllWebMenus script enlarges the reserved space for the positioning image. I am guessing by adding a bottom margin large enough to hold the menu.
I was inserting the positioning image and the Google code with a Library file using Dreamweaver. Apparently the path to the image went wrong along the way somehow.
I truly appreciate your help. I don’t know that I would have ever come up with this solution.

Initial Email Subject: Why aren't shadows working in Internet Explorer
Support Case Month: October 2012
My menus (top menu bar) have a shadow in all browsers (chrome, firefox, etc.) EXCEPT any version of Internet explorer.
What do I do?

Hello,
The drop-shadow (as well as the rounded borders etc.) are only supported by browsers that support CSS3. Hence they are not supported in IE8 or older. For IE9 or above you also need to have a proper DOCTYPE in your page, or else IE automatically goes into compatibility mode (and again does not support CSS3 features).
To fix the problem, please go to your pages and replace this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" >
<HTML>
With this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
This should fix the problem.

Initial Email Subject: All Web Menus Pro
Hello,
can I use your product to mimick the exact same look of my current vertical navigation menu (exact meaning no borders, retain color, font, etc). See below – is it possible to do this in Likno? The Company and Services selections should produce a simple sliding submenu when moused-over; the other selections should simply click and jump to a new page.
Thanks,
-David
Dear David,
Yes, this seems like a pretty easy menu to recreate…
You will find all the related properties in the Style Editor:
Note that there are three “group” styles and three “item” styles, representing the main menu, submenu and deeper submenus of your menu.
Also, you can add the little square image on the left of the text using the “Foreground Image” property. In general, I guess you just need to play around with AllWebMenus a bit in order to find out all the possibilities.
Best Regards,
Kostas
