It’s a bug in the css. Andy just committed a huge amount of bug fixes. Lemme go check them out to see if this is one of them.

EDIT: Nope, but another forums user has a fix for this. See the ticket for details: https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/535

I don’t know how Andy would fix it but this works ok for me.

the fix solve the 1 pixel gap (as you can see on http://wikiroma.it/index.php), but not the IE flickering

sgrunt, your fix did not work for me. On my localhost I tried changing the css for the two elements, but the menu second-level lists still randomly vanish when the mouse hovers over them. I even created a user account on wikiroma.it (nice site design btw) and experienced the problem on that site as well.

If I move the mouse very slowly down the menu, then the menu has a greater chance of remaining visible.

Within the code, I disabled the third-level lists from appearing, but this had no effect on the vanishing second-level lists.

I am using Firefox 3.0.6 on Windows Vista. The menu does not disappear when I tested with IE7 (although the third-level menus are prone to flickering).

Also, to fix a validation error that appears when a user is logged in, replace “alt” to “title” on line 507 of bp-core-templatetags.php

Besides the menu problem, Buddypress works awesomely, thanks Andy and BuddyPress community!

I am closing this topic, as it has been addressed also in “RC-1 – admin-bar-menu acting weird?.”
