I've just finished writing a website that gets its navigation from an shtml include file.

Here it is
http://www.durhambats.org.uk/index.html

In IE or chrome it works fine. In FF it shows a trailing hash after the link URL - and it fails.

Can anyone help please?

I see you're using the bootstrap framework.

As the others have said the navigation does work fine - but you need to click rather than hover. Were you expecting the navigation to dropdown using hover?

The # looks correct:
<a aria-expanded="false" href="[b]#[/b]" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown">

FWIW I've been looking at bootstrap and some of the other popular frameworks recently. For me it's still a problem when they don't work with IE8 as I see a lot of people are still using this.

Your site looks completely different in IE8 - the navigation doesn't show at all for example...

More and more people are dropping support for IE8 and not worrying so perhaps that's the way to go - but it seems a shame to lose those visitors.

Looks fine to me too, can't see any issues at at all.

You might just want to clear your browser cache, try again. I can't really see it being anything other than this, as it seems to display perfectly in all browsers as far as I can tell.

Hi johnmelodeon,

Just viewed the site in FF37.0.1 and all looks fine. Nothing visible as you suggest.
