Responsive Menu collapses to a vertical column of text

Post by DoctorWeb »

Hi Pablo,
Ive used the Responsive Menu for a few versions now, they take some getting used to but were OK until I upgraded to the latest version 5.4. Since then, each time I put a Responsive Menu bar up, it looks fine in QnEWB, looks OK on preview, but after publising to the site, my lovely horizontal responsive menu disappears, and instead I get a vertical column of text showing the page titles in blue, about 6 point text or so and with no background - all running all over my text. How do I make the Responsive Menu basrs stay horizontal and look right? Have I inadvertendtly changes something?

Ive even tried copy and past menus from other pages, whcih look Ok yet (as I made them some time ago) but as soon as I publish them, they are annihiliated into vertical ugly plain text. My host say its not the server which could be responsible.

You can see the effect on this page http://worldofradio.co.uk/RadioBooks.html

(I vaguely remember a similar problem back in V2 or 3)

Many thanks for any suggestions

I do not see the problem on your website. Did you already solve it?

Or maybe it is a browser related issue?
Did you try to view the page on another computer?

Its a bit of a disatser,
Its some pages only do this. Seems to be related to the navigation bar, as when I remove that all the nonsense disappears. But i can't have a web site without some kind of navigation bar at the top.

It seems to be Safari that's worse, although it's showing up in Opera too.
Also , it does it on random pages. Sady, on the Worldofradio site, its the index page that I have the problem on!

I am thinking there is something very wrong with the v5 I have downloaded. All my web sites are sitting on the server totally scrambled - pages are being jumbled up, with random text boxes in the wrong places, and images the wrong size and position.
They look fine at the PREVIEW stage, but once they hit the server they go very wrong (as above - especially Nav Bar, which just gives vertical text instead of the coloured horizontal bar).

I have looked in Safari, Opera and Firefox - all look about the s same,
its as though its the 'send to server' p[art of the software that is doing things wrong.
Is there are way that I / we can check this?

Many thanks

Can you please tell me exactly where to look for the problem?
What do you see and what is it suppose to look like?

I do see a lot of custom code, this is usually the cause of errors.
I suggest to reset all HTML formatting in Preferences -> HTML because your own code may not be compatible with these settings.
