WebFX Dynamic Webboard (Static Version)

If the width/height is incorrect the left/top will be incorrect in a few cases because width/height are taken into account when the position is calculated.

I would really appreciate if anyone that get these size errors could tell me how to reproduce them since I've never seen them. This might help me to locate what is going wrong and help me fix this.

I've also noticed that when the width and height are incorrect, the left is also incorrect.

When the sizes are off, the submenus appear on TOP of the arrows instead of slightly to the right. I'm digging through the code to see if I can figure out why.

I've noticed that on a semi-regular basis, the menus will appear the wrong size. When displayed correctly, the menu is 203 x 234. Sometimes it will appear about 10 x 260. Sometimes 203 x 260. Rarely it will be too thin (like 190x260).

I can't reproduce it reliably - it is probably a timing issue. I'm not sure if its because the entire page, including the stylesheet, hasn't finished loading at the point that the measurement is taken, but the incorrect size is definitely a problem. It happens both when I have and don't have icons, and when I have or don't have separators.
