Reading that, I went back to the page. I can get one of the
dropdowns (Law Profession) to actually open if I -- very quickly --
shake the mouse sideways and down at the same time. About a third of
the time, I'll get to use the submenu. It's the same on several
other (probably all) pages at the site. What good is a site that
can't be navigated?
The OP's CSS file if you look at it is a perfect example of "more is
less"!
67KB of it! ... in a unmaintainable format, to boot.
It was a temporary issue that was quickly fixed and it works now.
You can mock all you want but the site works.
No it doesn't. Here's a challenge. View the page. Increase the font size
once or twice (in Firefox, that's by pressing Ctrl-Plus). Now try to
make your dropdowns work. You forget some folks have less-than-perfect
eyesight and have their fonts set larger than you are anticipating.
(Your small pixel-sized fonts reinforce that.) Report back.
Every designer swears he knows what he's doing and you can deal with a
lot of trouble until things are the way you want them. However, the
show must go on and business must occur to help maintain the cost of
the site. The format works just fine for most of the users.
"for most of the users." Okay, so what percent of users are you going
to turn away? 10%? 30%? How much profit can you afford to lose?
I haven't been able to get your menus to work in any browser unless I
reduce font size way smaller than I can read. Then, the menus usually
work but I can't read the resulting pages.
If you're volunteering to clean it up so that it's absolutely
"perfect", then I accept. :)
What is your hourly rate for volunteers? It'd better be good...
LOL... OK, that's what I thought - the problems are with maginified
text. Most of my users will probably not use maginified text but I do
agree with you - the site should eventually move in this direction. As
many of you know, there are great designers who are TERRIBLE coders
and then there are coders who are pretty good but don't take into
account things like this... so we're moving along.
No joke - feel free to contact me (if you can make it to the support
section, LOL) and glad to discuss. You can click support and it gets
you there.
FYI - each menu item places you on a landing page with all the
dropdown choices. I did that intentionally just in case there were
problems such as you described (and also for mobile usage when the
menus weren't automatically optimized.)
