I'm having problems with the drop down menus on the new mylot...
When using my laptop... when I put my mouse over my name or follows, but, the drop down menu list dissapears when I move the mouse to click on the function I want... I am using xp... anyone any suggestios ? @myLotBugs... can you help.... ?
I am not having any of these problems on my tablet... and i'm not very technically minded..., so do not really know where to begin....
Other than this little problem I like the new look of mylot...

I'm glad ... I can see that only a minority of people are having a similar problem.... so that's good... but i hope someone can help me make it right....

I cannot think of any logical reason why this should happen. The only suggestion that I can think of at the moment is to leave the mouse over the heading such as username or Follows etcetera and use the tab key to move down the menu.

@sueznewz2 Yeah, it won't if you are using IE for your browser.

@sueznewz2 You can tag or send a pm to myLotbugs.
The menu is suppose to disappear when you move your mouse off it because there is more than one menu's.

No, my old desktop uses XP and I am having no problem using it here. (I don't LIKE using it here, so only ran a quick test with it, but had no problems on myLot other than that dad-blamed aggressive cookie! Now I have to de-bug my old desktop! It caught the cookie!)

@sueznewz2 Susan? I apologize. I forget I am still talking to someone who doesn't know me. You are more than welcome to any real help I can provide and you shouldn't be sorry I caught that cookie. I KNEW it was here, so risked my desktop with full knowledge that it might catch it.
I was willing to risk my desktop because I dislike leaving anyone in the lurch with programming issues.
You are not the first and will not be the last person I will risk catching a bug while I am trying to ascertain the parameters of their problems. (I will gripe, but am not directing said gripe at the person I am trying to help.)

@sueznewz2 The main reason why I haven't gone out and bought a new tablet is because they all have windows 10 loaded on them, and I'm not looking forward to using that browser. I love my windows 7.

@sueznewz2 YOU have reported it, and so have I. I don't follow Hatley either, so didn't realize she was also having this problem.
If getting off IE fixes this for you, please tell Hatley about it. Thank you!

@sueznewz2 I think it must have been a post about the new MyLot and not one of Patsie's own. I'll have a look tomorrow as it's late here and we've just farewelled visitors.

@sueznewz2 no I haven't reported it as I have a similar problem on other sites too. I'm sure it's my tablet at fault. I probably need to update some programme or other, Adobe or something.
