Hmm! I haven't touched this script for ages (developing the FreeStyle Menu more), but it's probably a hangover from a workaround for a Safari 1.2 bug.

If you scroll to the end of pop_data.js and find the addDropShadow function you can see a comment there regarding a Safari 1.2 bug. Replace that next line with:

var alpha = true;

and things should work better in Safari 2, which I presume doesn't suffer from the bug.

Also, menu orientation is set in the startMenu() line, change the true/false value and enjoy.

Good luck - Angus.

thanks Angus, works for Safari 2.0!

the menu modification that I'm seeking is a vertical root menu where the submenus pop-out sideways, left to right.
