I am using Cofunized text in my drop downs with superfish. But dropdown text is hidden in IE8. I try this fix but no luck instead it stopped working in every browser. The fix is: https://forum.jquery.com/topic/jquery-fix-superfish-cufon-in-ie8.
<script type="text/javascript">
Cufon.CSS.ready(function(){
$("ul#nav_709109").supersubs({
minWidth: 12, // minimum width of sub-menus in em units
maxWidth: 27, // maximum width of sub-menus in em units
extraWidth: 1 // extra width can ensure lines don't sometimes turn over
// due to slight rounding differences and font-family
}).superfish({
autoArrows: true, // disable generation of arrow mark-up
dropShadows: false // disable drop shadows
});
});
Cufon.replace('#main-nav li a', {fontFamily:'GRMedium',hover: true});
</script>
specify a height for your element might fix your problem. If not, could you provide us your code or an url or something so we can take a closer look?
