menu scripts don't work in Chrome
HI
I administer a web site for a school mascot. It's just a bit of fun for the school kids and is not meant to be wildly professional or anything.I have posted all the files to a temporary directory while I investigate this problem; http://www.testarea.iwsweb.net
The collapsible menu works fine in internet explorer and other open source explorers but I know it doesn't work for my one visitor who uses a MAC. I would like to fix that but because of my target audience and the fact that only one of my last 500 visitors uses a MAC, it's not high on my list.
My problem that I need help with is that the collapsing menus don't work with Chrome from Google. I have raised that with them as an issue, but I would appreciate it if you guys would have a quick look and tell me if there is something obvious that I am doing wrong.
I apopreciate your input

Hi John, welcome to TWF!
The bad news is that your menus don't work in Opera or Firefox either... only IE!
perhaps you should try a different script, there are some good ones at Dynamic Drive (they should be cross-browser unless noted otherwise, and you can also test the demos before you shoose)
Latest browser stats at W3Schools say Opera + Chrome is about 6.7% of viewers (but likely to increase)
Firefox however is 46.5% so it's something you definitely want to fix!

Yup. Doesn't work for me in any of my browsers. And, yes, I'm on a Mac. Perhaps you don't have many Mac visitors as they can't navigate your site at all -- why would we come back?
Lots of markup errors in your code. I suggest a trip to a validator[1][2].
Do come back if correcting the markup does not help.
