Author Popup Menus

I've had an email from a visitor saying that he's having trouble with a popup
menu created with Fireworks & edited in Dreamweaver. The menu pops out
momentarily but apparently wont hold position, also the links dont work - he's
on a MAC using IE 5.2. According to the browser check in Dreamweaver MX this
shouldn't happen - it reports no problems with a MAC / IE5.2 combination, any
one what is going wrong here?
Thanks!

It's probably the pop-up menus themselves. You won't find much love for
them here. They should have never been included in the product.

What is the link to your page?

Hi
Thanks for replying, I'm certainly starting to get the impression that
Macromedia popup menus are flawed. I've substituted the menu with an
alternative extension from Project Seven (PVII). This is a much simpler popup
solution using just CSS, the only issue I have with it is that it requires the
use of an onMouseOver event in a Div tag which isn't recognised by Netscape 6.
What is the general feeling about this, important or not?

Not important at all. NN6 is such a tiny tiny fraction of the total browser
population (even smaller than NN4, probably) that I wouldn't worry for one
minute about it.
