the spacing I know how to fix;
you have to set letter-spacing for the html text to be the same as the content your adding. Becasue your replacing text with a different typeface which won't have the same letterspacing the flash file makes up the difference, and you get crazy spacing and font-sizes.
Try editing it in firefox firebug to get the letter spacing the same width as the flash, update the css and it should then currect your spacing.

this is a real mother fucker exscuse my langauge.!
I can get the mother fucker working with the sifr directing to the Li tags in terms of hover etc and selecting the block element instead of text, but when I set it to the <a tag, or a span within it, it displays everything still correctly, but I loose the block display and it struggles with finding anything to click on, looses hover too.

I've done it, but i was not happy about it. I'm pretty much over sifr.

found out We're using sifr2 within our CMS so guess it needs an update. Alot of the info I've found says that sifr3 is pretty close to getting things right all round.

Got this sifr naviagtion working almost now... only problem I got is it display its normal hypertext font underneath briefly before it turns to sifr.. only in IE. Tried making visibility: hidden in the css on the list. But of course then if the user doesnt have flash, they don't see anything. Anyone know a way round this?
- Stugoo0
not really.
maybe hide it with javascript? odds are if no flash no javascipt.

sifr's are fine to use as navs as long as you know what you are doing. It's shithouse implementation that farks things up...

nah somthings up with the overall set up here, was never doing this with sifr2.
in IE I can see the heading change from plain text to sifr each time it loads up... completly messy

you want to be using sifr 3 mate. sifr2 fails in ie8.
