    Hi there.

    First of all, thanks for developing this awesome tool and letting us to preview it.

    I've simply used for my sample database. But I use IE7 and i see that the menu on the left is not well organised. I mean some narrower elements are placed side by side, not like a list. It looks great with Firefox.

    Is there a workaround for this? I think the problem is with the css file (or the way IE7 parses the css)

    Even if the table names are shorter, they are rendered side by side.

    Another screenshot.

    Yes, it looks like IE7 struggles with the CSS styles the Blinq menu uses.  To fix this, follow these steps:

    1.  Between line 80 and 81 (in the section for li.AspNet-Menu-Leaf) of C:\Program Files\Microsoft ASP.NET\Blinq\ThemeFiles\MenuStyles.css, add this line:

        width: 141px;
    

    2. Add this section to the same file:

    .AspNet-Menu-WithChildren
    {
        width: 160px;
    }
    

    To make sure you're not affecting any other style, it's safest to add it to the top of the file.  Each time Blinq runs, it will use the new MenuStyles.css file.  If you have existing Blinq-generated applications that you'd like to fix, make the same change to the MenuStyles.css file in App_Themes\Default.

    Hope this helps...

    That worked great...

    I was at Dev Connections and when Scott G. did his demo on Blinq he very smoothly transitioned to using FireFox instead of IE7.

     

    It was a very cool demo... lots of ooohs and ahhhs.

     

    Thanks
