Hello!

I have a menu up here http://www.wolfcast.com/menuc/

I have a bug in Opera & Safari on Windows:
http://www.wolfcast.com/menuc/Opera.jpg (last letter of each word is 'chopped' on poping menus)
http://www.wolfcast.com/menuc/Safari.jpg (main items not showing up)

I want to fix them.

I also want to simplify all that CSS/HTML code, but this is my first real use of CSS...

I know I should not use tables, and are willing to replace it by something else but I don't know how.

Anyone is willing to help ?

* ypSlideOutMenu

*
* a nice little script to create exclusive, slide-out

* mac and win32. I've got no linux or unix to test on but
* it should(?) work...

* Revised:
* - 08/29/2002 : added .hideAll()
* - 04/15/2004 : added .writeCSS() to support more
* than 30 menus.
* - 03/15/2005 : check if submenu exists -by DuDDo-
* - 06/19/2007 : fixed CSS clip -by A. Valiquette-
