I have a horizontal navigation menubar with five links. It is built with CSS
inline style. Below it is a horizontal submenu bar. Each submenu bar
initially is visibility: hidden, and when the user moves the mouse over the
main level menu item, I wrote javascript telling the browser to display the
appropriate submenu. The menu works great in IE but the submenus never become
visible in Netscape. I like this menu style because it is similar to the
two-tiered flash menus, but it doesn't use flash, allowing for much quicker
page loading. Any suggestions?

The site is at www.cbcwichita.org/testpage.shtml.

Here's a sample of the code for one menu item:

function showabout()
{
librarynav.style.visibility='hidden';
aboutusnav.style.visibility='visible';
radionav.style.visibility='hidden';
contactnav.style.visibility='hidden';

}
Thanks,
Robb

I see no problem in FF1 (which is Netscape with a different coat).

In Netscape 7.2 I get the error (javascript error) that librarynav is not
defined. Yet in other browsers it works fine, and none of the other submenus
are undefined. Any suggestions?

Yes - I get the missing image too. In addition, I get the menu and no error
in Firefox1, and I get NO menu and no error in NN7.1.

There would really be no compelling reason not to rip this menu out and
rebuild it in FP with simple show/hide layer behaviors.
