ASPxMenu - A menu item background becomes white for a short period when a page is first time loaded

created 13 years ago

I was just wondering how you make the background of the menu transparent?
I have used an image for the menuitems(see develsite.coffsccs.nsw.edu.au), but it has a whitebackground around it and I can't seem to get rid of it.
I have read some articles on changing the itemspacing and padding values to 0 but I want to remove the background color all together.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
thanks

    Hello Darren,
    I assume that you are using an image to display it as an item background when the mouse cursor hovers over the item. If so, a browser will show the default background until the image is loaded. I recommend you set a background color similar to the loaded image color. A user will see the background of the same color until the image is loaded.
    Alternatively, you can use a sprite to customize the item background. The sprite should be loaded when some page element needs to display its part of the sprite image. As a result, the browser will not need to load any additional image when the mouse cursor hovers over the menu item.
    If you have any other questions, you are welcome to contact us at any time.
    Best regards,
    Vladimir
