At home i have a PC using IE 6.0 but at work I tried to access my site on a Mac computer and none of it comes out. All I get is a grey screen. I thought it might be the computers at work but then i asked another friend who owns a mac and same thing..a grey screen ...

I suspect it's a problem with that menu javascript you're using.

Try taking that out to help pin down the problem. Different browsers handle javascript differently, and there may be something in the JS you are using that IE chokes on (it looks fine in Safari, btw).

You also might want to investigate the use of CSS-styled lists for your navigation, which is easier to maintain, makes your whites whiter, etc.

is ther another navigation menu i can use that has like the same effect where the sublinks or whatever come down?

I dont think these links have the same effect..or do they?

I'm sure there are other JS-powered menu widgets out there, but that's not my area of expertise and not an MT issue.

Some of the lists at the listamatic site I mentioned do dynamically pop up submenus, but they use a feature of CSS that IE does not support.

(Later) Oddly enough, I just ran into this completely by coincidence.

If the problem is only with IE5 for Mac then I say don't worry about it. That application is no longer available and most people using Mac OS X have switched to Safari, Firefox, or Camino.

Exactly, IE for Mac is no longer distributed or supported. Even Microsoft tells you to use Safari.
