Hi Lucas,

Thanks for your response.
I've just have a test on the page you provided, seems the menu's dynamic
sub items are poped out quickly, so I'm still thinking this could be a
clientside related issue. Can you find any other boxes that dosn't suffer
the problem with the same page?

| So I just created a new website and used the default page/sitemap, etc.,

Obviously

page

in

you.
|
| Thanks for the welcome, Steven, and thanks for your help!
