Yes. I use RH 8.0 (KDE 3.0.3), but these menus _always_ failed to properly render in Konqy. Check it out:
OK, now I see what the problem is. Something is set in the HTML so that the text makes the table wider instead of wrapping. However, Konqueror apparently miscalculates font sizes. I can reproduce this on Mozilla if I turn on 200x font zoom, but then you can actually see the text pushing on the menu side. I can't see that in your screenshot.
Anyway, this can probably be solved by tweaking the stylesheet. Jeremy Newman came up with a different design, so I doubt that the current one will get adopted. If it does, I'll try to find a solution. Unfortunately, HTML and even CSS are supported in a very inconsistent manner, so it's difficult to make something that works well on everything.

I can't reproduce this Problem with Konqueror CVS post KDE-3.1rc1.

OK, we can wait for now, but being on the subject, I _really_ hope Jeremy will give the expanded menus a chance: they are so much more explicit, they just make the site more 'open'. And that is Good!

I definitely second that: Francois Layout was *way* more usable than the folded menus.

I second that. Hidden information seems to have been the *main* issue with the old site (yeah, I've had quite some discussions sometimes about certain things), so we should really have *more* than one level per default (and not more than two levels either, so you know what that now leaves us with ;-). In fact I dislike the preview (in this respect) even more than the current version, since it's a very tiny very non-informative menu. The current version, while not having two levels of menu info, at least has the very good excuse of being damn well visible.

Well, Jeremy Newman has already fallen; if you check the latest round of lostwages, he's already gone over to the 'dark' side <grin>.
And I'm wavering as well...so, I don't see a reason not to go with it.

Great news... OK, so I currently have only one or two minor requests: - Please add HEIGTH and WIDTH tags to all images, as konquError currently only shows ALT-Tags if these values are there (and image loading is off of course). - Make sure the html and css code validate ok, they don't at the moment.
