How to specify global image directory?

[mfindlay]

Using Milonic 5.42 registered.

Is there a prooperty that can be set to indicate to the menu system a global directory where it will find all images? (i.e. submenu arrow images, etc) regardless of where the menu is used in the site?

Thanks!

Hi,

The best way to do this is to use a variable that you pass to all images.

The variable is declared at the top of the data file and is re-used when you need to declare an image.

Here's a sample:

Code: Select all

var imgLocation="http://milonic.com/images/";

with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
onbgcolor="#4F8EB6";
oncolor="#ffffff";
offbgcolor="#DCE9F0";
offcolor="#515151";
image=imgLocation+"image.gif";
subimage=imgLocation+"subimg.jpg";
}

with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
style=menuStyle;
alwaysvisible=1;
aI("text=Home;image="+imgLocation+"image1.gif;url=http://milonic.com/;");
aI("text=Home;image="+imgLocation+"image2.gif;url=http://milonic.com/;");
aI("text=Home;image="+imgLocation+"image3.gif;url=http://milonic.com/;");

}

Hope this helps
