On certain sites where drop down menus are used, I cannot select items on these menus because the first item on each menu is automatically selected when I drop the menu.

Please provide an example of a site that displays this issue.

Hi KB,

Ironically, this one, for example! If I select the drop down menu under my username at the top of this page (between 'Contributor Tools' and 'Inbox'), I am automatically forwarded to the View Profile page (the first link on this drop down menu).

This also happens on my banking website, www.bmoinvestorline.com, although the automatic forward happens much faster.

Here's a pic of the menu
