Win8 NT 7.05 DoubleDrop Menu problem

[markster]

I just got a new laptop with Win8 on it. I'm using NT 7.05. Once I got my program/data swapped over to the new machine, I recompiled my web app and loaded it up. I have SSL set, used locally. No problems in Win7. But it would not load in Win8. I tried the NT SSL example app and had the same problem. Okay I disabled that to load standard and figured I would get back to that issue later. So then I recompiled and started the app again.

Now the main menu acts strangely. I'm using the DoubleDrop option. I click on a menu button to display the drop down menu items beneath it, then move the mouse down over a menu item to select it. The problem is that the program accepts the hovering as if I clicked on the button. I don't even have time to click on the desired menu item as the auto selection takes place within a split second of the hovering.

Regards,

Mark

I've had a bit of time to fiddle with the menu problem and have determined that it is Firefox running in Win8 64bit that is the problem. I tried IE10 and there is no problem. My prior laptop using Win7 32bit with Firefox 18.0.2 has no problem. My new laptop is Win8 64bit with Firefox version 18.0.2 and that has the problem.

Continuing saga: the following code is in a NetForm procedure. The last 2 lines (in red) are my addition to the generated template code. The addition of the heightstyle option works in Firefox as planned--that is to say that each tab in the Accordion resizes automatically to fit the content height. However, in IE10, what happens with this custom code is that the form generates without the accordion tabs (it shows hyperlinks instead) and the functionality of the form is broken: the save/cancel buttons don't work and there is no field entry possible.

    Case loc:WebStyle
    of Net:Web:Accordion
      loc:options = 'active:' & choose(p_web.GetSessionValue('showtab_UpdateCustomerGroup')>0,p_web.GetSessionValue('showtab_UpdateCustomerGroup'),'0') & ',' &|
                    'change: function(event, ui) {{ TabChanged(''UpdateCustomerGroup_tabchanged'',jQuery(this).find("h3").index(ui.newHeader[0])); }'
      ! Start of "Set jQuery Accordion Options"
      ! [Priority 5000]
      !  Set accordion heightstyle to size to each section's individual content
      loc:options = clip(loc:options) & ',heightStyle: content'
