Tigra menu positioning problem!

I have a bit of programming knowledge but no JS.

The tigra menu looks great on the site i'm building when viewed at 1024*768, but when i view it with a 800*600 setting it goes wrong. Could anyone help me plz?

I know this can be done by making the code react to the resolution settings, though i don't know how to do this.

Free version offers absolute positioning feature: you specify distance to menu in pixels from top and left edges of the document. PRO and GOLD versions additionally offer other other positioning options. Links:

That's not true,...
It's possible to make the free menu
to position correct even if the user resizes
browser window.

Small changes are required:
1-in .tpl insted a value in left alignement you must insert a variable name (for example myleft)
2-in you page after the <body> tag you must insert a code like this:
<script language=javascript>
if (document.body.offsetWidth<....){ myLeft = ....;} else {myLeft = ((document.body.offsetWidth-....)/2)+.....;}
</script>
replace ... with correct value for your site....
this works fine with Explorer, you have to modify this script if you want use FireFox/Mozilla

when window size changes the position changes correctly AFTER A REFRESH (F5 or reload of the page)

if you want an automatic refresh add this script after <body> tag

<script language=javascript>window.onresize = function () {document.location.reload();}</script>

Do you like this?

P.S. Remember to position all other include scripts
just before </body> tag

this is still true if

1. we're talking about standard version of the script
2. browser compatibility is not affected
3. menu will reposition if visitor changes the window size after the page is loaded

your ideas are welcome, but some webmasters can't settle for partial solution.
