Hi,

I have a problem with my solpartmenu vertical.

I want to be the container (the first list of the menu) transparant, or with a background image.

But if I do that my submenu will get transparant. But I don't want that. If I give a background color it works. But the container may not have a background color.

How can I fix this, the problem is only in Firefox, in IE it works just fine.

Dear Aljan123

When you look closer at the items of a solpartmenu then you see this:

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" class="MainMenu_Container">
<tr>
  <td>
  <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"
    <tr class="MainMenu_MenuBar MainMenu_MenuItem + [RootMenuItemNormal OR RootMenuItemHover OR RootMenuItemActive OR RootMenuItemBreadcrumb]">
       <td class="MainMenu_MenuItem + [RootMenuItemNormal OR RootMenuItemHover OR RootMenuItemActive OR RootMenuItemBreadcrumb">
 [LeftHTML][<img src="RootMenuItemBreadcrumbArrow.gif"]NAME_OF_ROOTMENUITEM[RightHTML]</td>
       <td class="MainMenu_MenuArrow MainMenu_MenuRootArrow"><img src="menu_down.gif" /></td>
    </tr>
</table>
 </td>
</tr>
</table>

I've set the standard css classes in bold, for instance MainMenu_MenuItem . And I've given the others classes a name that you can understand what they do. See the documentation how to set them.
(Of course you've also the menubreak...)
As you can see all these classes (if you are using them) must be set to transparent to see the background of the container for the vertical menu (also the borders if they are standard set). But when you set in IE borders to transparent and they have a thickness then the borders have the same color as the color of the td tag. (bug in IE)

For the submenu's you have another container.
MainMenu_SubMenu
As you set the background of this container then all the items of the submenu's have a background.
You must also know that the MainMenu_MenuItem style and a few others also works in the submenu...
