[Dynapi-Help] [FIX] Re: How DTDs effect IE 6 and Mozilla 1.5 on Windows (HTMLMenu)

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Here's the fix for HTMLMenu.

It works for all of the Mozilla failures, but none of the IE.  The IE
failures appear to be a failure in the sub menu folding code because
the dynapi.document.getHeight() function is returning 0.

here's the diff (attached is the whole fixed file)
