    Default ComponentArt Menu IE8

    I have noticed an issue with the ComponentArt menu after I added a doctype to the expressTemplate.ascx to take IE8 out of quirks mode.
    When I hover over the menu bar and a sub-menu pops up there seems to be 2-3 pixel gap between the main and popup menus.
    Then if I move the mouse slowly to the sub-menu the pointer hits the gap and the sub-menu go away before the mouse enters it.
    If I move the mouse quickly the sub-menu stays.

    The menu works correctly on Firefox 3.5.5.
    I have only seen this on IE 8, when NOT in compatibility mode, in compatibility mode the menu works as expected.

    Has anyone else noticed this and is there a tweak to the menu to fix this?

    We've noticed the same, and while we don't yet have a tweak to the menu to resolve when not running in compatibility mode, we have moved completely away from componentart in the next version (ML9) and will be using the .NET menu control within master pages

    You can resolve this problem by changing CollapseDelay property.
    e.g.
    <ComponentArt:Menu ID="PageMenu" CollapseDelay="300"...

    Setting

    <ComponentArt:Menu ID="PageMenu" CollapseDelay="300"...

    Did not fix the issue.
