Secondlife Website menus dont work in Firefox?

I see the menu, eg for Community, but there's no dropdown menu.

Just me, or a general problem?

They aren't working in Opera either. The old school black ones work just fine, but the new blue ones do not.

Same situation here (in Firefox). The old ones on the main site work, the problem is only on the bar at the top of the forum site. I was thinking maybe it was just me.

I use firefox too. The drop downs only appear if I click on one of the top level menus such as About Second Life (Community doesn't work for this). Then I get a login page, then the drop downs appear.

Same here. They drop down on the main site, but not in the forums.

Using Safari 1.2.3, Mac OS X 10.3.5

What browsers do they work in?

I've been having the same issue (Firefox here). I don't get why they would work on the old forum page but not now. Upgrades are supposed to add features not remove them.. in theory. :)

It's a nice idea Echo (gotta love tabbed browsing :D ) but I usually go first to the forums page and only then to somewhere else on the SL site if I need to check something like an event detail or an auction. It's pretty baffling why this site was set up only to work right in a browser that everyone tells us is a security risk.

The 'About Second Life', 'Community', etc., links at the top of the forums are not pull down menus. Most of the people here use Firefox or Mozilla as their primary browser and we usually use IE for windowsupdate and testing.

So they don't drop down even in IE, then? (As they do on the other internal pages)

That's a relief - I'd hate to think you were going in the direction of using non-standards-compliant DHTML code that works in IE and nothing else :)

I'll await the full redesign of the site before commenting further. (Paging Bub...)
