Hi
Urgent problem.. about to go live!
I have a master page with a panel bar as menu that has been working for some months.
Today it has developed a strange problem on my development machine:
When you click a top level item, the child items open in in a layer above the subsequent item,
and only shows as text (no bar background image). It does not displace lower items downwards.
It seems like ajax not quite working.
I tried two things:
1 ) I copied back a working version from my remote server
It still doesn't work on the development machine, so it looks like the page itslef is OK.
2 ) I created a Panel bar on a test page on my local machine - it works normally
I am baffled, and don't know where to look. Can you suggest where to start looking?
I am using the latest hotfix, downloaded last week
Thanks for urgent response!

Problem solved - and here is the answer in case some other innocent victim of Visual Studio falls into this:
On one of the pages that uses the master page with the panel bar, I have a bulleted list.
The spacing was uneven so I adjusted the <li> boundary a little, and behind the scenes
VS added a height element to the li element in the css file.
Which then messed up the skin of the Panel Bar (made the spacing too small?).
Anyway I removed offending height spec from the css and we are back in business. (Sigh)

P.S You did tell me not to have bulleted lists using <ul> and <li> as it conflicts with RadControls
css...
