It works fine in every other browser (as most things do), but in IE 8, instead of dropping down, it drops across. And in IE7, it does this:
It’s like it creates a new window for the menu to drop down into, but still drops across, and then puts a 404 in the empty window. Here’s the code that I’m using:
var Spry;
if(!Spry)
{
Spry = {};

{
this.element = this.getElement(element);
this.currMenu = null;
var isie = (typeof document.all != 'undefined' && typeof window.opera == 'undefined' && navigator.vendor != 'KDE');
if(typeof document.getElementById == 'undefined' || (navigator.vendor == 'Apple Computer, Inc.' && typeof window.XMLHttpRequest == 'undefined') || (isie && typeof document.uniqueID == 'undefined'))
{
return;
}
if(opts)
{
for(var k in opts)
{
var rollover = new Image;
rollover.src = opts[k];
}
}
if(this.element)
{
this.currMenu = this.element;
var items = this.element.getElementsByTagName('li');
for(var i=0; i<items.length; i++)
{
this.initialize(items*, element, isie);
if(isie)
{
this.addClassName(items*, "MenuBarItemIE");
items*.style.position = "static";
}
}
if(isie)
{

{
