Thanks to Mark Sanderson and Marty Blase for bringing this problem to my attention. Special thanks to Tony Le , a struggling student at UC Berkeley, for spending a Sunday afternoon running the script on several Unix flavors. This column introduces a new version of the hierarchical menu script.
All information is valid at the time of writing.
New browser versions released after publication may not behave as outlined. The script is constantly under revision, with new features added, problems fixed and new browser versions addressed. Read this column, and future columns, to learn how we built the menu script. Use the most recent version of the script, always available in HierMenus Central . You must be familiar with the script for Hierarchical Menus Version 3 to appreciate the discussion.
