Hi,
I have created a menu and inserted separator items between each button item, but I want the space to be blank. I set
text = ""
isSeparator = True
width = 5

The menu renders as I had expected in IE7, with a gap between each button image, but in firefox and safari, the separator is ignored.
I have tried setting text = " " to no avail. Adding a character such as "|" does cause the separator to be rendered.

Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks

Rob

Hello Rob,

I tried to reproduce the problem, but to no avail.
The separator is displayed fine in FF 2.0 and Safari for Windows 3.0.4

Here is my html:



Below is a screenshot of the separator under FireFox and Safari.

Hi Veskoni,

Thanks for that. I have realised that my separators weren't displaying at all. as I had thought that specifying no skin was permissible. Now I have created a skin based on Default (bu set te background colours to white) and the separators are showing, and they are the same in all browsers.

The actual problem was that IE is inserting an additional space to the right of the image on the menu item. THis hppens with my customised skin and with the default skin, and also with the "old" radcontrols menu.

I am not using text on the menu items, by the way, just a graphic image.

Is there a known way around this? I can't see where this is coming from. Is it IE adding a space to the right of the image, or IE making the menu button bigger than my image?

Here is the code that creates my buttons:

myMenuItem.ImageUrl = "~/App_Themes/" & strTheme & "/Images/" & strImage

myMenuItem.ImageOverUrl = "~/App_Themes/" & strTheme & "/Images/" & strRollover

myMenuItem.Text = ""

I'm not sure how to give you a snapshot of what the difference looks like.

Kind regards,

Rob

Hi,
I'm not sure what happened, but after I posted my last comment, the mystery space vanished, and everything started working as I expected.

Thanks

Hi Rob,

I am glad that the problem is resolved now. Maybe there was some caching involved.

All the best,
