Support Case Month: October 2012
The text in the top level menus wrap. For example for the menu item "Free & Trial Software" I get
Free &
Trial
Software
when the menu is displayed in IE8.
I am not using HTML text.
If I tell menu to use full width, wrap goes away (this is not an acceptable solution). How do I prevent the text wrap?
After further testing with above link, you may have to change font size or % size to see the wrap. The Apycom DHTML Menu we are trying to replace with your product does not have this wrap problem.Related URL: http://www.microridge.com/_text_wrap.htm

Hello,
I checked your page and it seems the problem is caused because you do not have a valid DOCTYPE in your page.
This causes IE to go into the so called “quirks mode” which is essentially IE5.5 Compatibility Mode.
Please try replacing this:
<html>
With this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>Regards,
