I was checking out the website and navigation on the left side of the screen is really wonky in IE9. I have to put my cursor almost between the navigation items to get the sub menus to work and it is a really small space. Putting my cursor on the word doesn't work so I can never access your sub menus. I was interested in looking at your software but I am losing interest quickly because I didn't see any screenshots of what your software looks like. I realize what you are working on is in beta so maybe screenshots are not available but they would have helped me make a decision on whether or not to download/use your application.

You can view the screenshots generated during each automated build and release here: http://www.softwaremonkeys.net/screenshots/[^] I'm aware of the issue with the menu but haven't figured out why it's happening yet. It seems strange that Microsoft's own browser doesn't work with one of their own ASP.NET menu controls when firefox does. It's even worse because in some versions of IE I've had it work, but it others it doesn't. And in Chrome it works....most of the time. I've decided to abandon HTML and JavaScript for the next version, as much as possible. I'm planning a new version with a silverlight interface, which should help get around the traditional browser compatibility issues and make the whole application a lot more efficient and enjoyable to use. I'm investigating the possibilities of making the navigation and organization more visual and intuitive, using some of the new features silverlight offers. I've built a new dependency injection system for the new version and I'm in the process of building a new, more scalable data storage system (built on RavenDB instead of db4o). The new version will use a lot of existing code and concepts but it's being completely re-organised and refactored from the ground up to make it even more efficient to work with. I'll post more info once I have at least a prototype of the new version.
