Fix for Suckerfish Dropdowns in IE 7

Published on June 20, 2007 in Asides

While attempting to implement a Suckerfish dropdown recently I ran across a problem that causes the menu do not function properly in IE 7. Basically, if you change focus within the browser then move back across the dropdowns, the menus stick in place on the screen. Fortunately, ‘Built from Source’ has posted a simple solution to this problem.

Thanks for this tip. Will it work for a vertical menu? And I totally agree with Carl and Jane, IE7 can be such a pain.
