If the menuing is a must then maybe a browser detection script and well
documented/orchestrated version control would get you through it

at least that seems to be the lesson we've learned

good luck dude!

I think I read something about Fireworks 4.02 [or something similar] that
improves them. But it means redoing the work in FW.

Its a pity really as I've seen similar DHTML menus working in Opera (such as
the ones on http://cross-browser.com/). I've slightly reworked it now so
that the menu titles link to menu pages for browsers that dont support the
menus. More investigation needed methinks...

Cheers,
