Hi to all!
Yesterday evening I installed a new menu in my web shop at http://www.videofrank.nl
Two problems...
1) I had a javascript that automatically enlarges a picture, when viewing a product description and moving
the mouse over the picture. This has stopped working. Why is that?
2) I put a number in front of the categorie description. To align the text, I put a table in each menu entry, first cell contains a number and the second cell contains the menu text. I made the table transparent, so that the background color changes as you move over the menu. But before I put that table in, the text would invert from black to white (which is nice) but now stays black all the time. How can I make these tables inheret all the properties as set by $mmstyle parameters?
Thanks for any hints and ideas!
Best wishes, Frank
Problem with Oscommerce shop
Re: Problem with Oscommerce shop
Hi Frank,
I see a few problems, some with the menu, and some with other scripts you are using...
1. From Google Analytics - "Copy the following code block into every webpage you want to track immediately before the </body> tag.". You have that code in the <head>.
2. The </head> tag is missing.
3. The tooltip code you are using states the following - "/* IMPORTANT: Put script after tooltip div or put tooltip div just before </BODY>. */". I don't see either of those instructions being followed.
4. The menu is not set up properly for use in a table cell. See this page for instructions.
5. Typically we like to see the menu calls as the first item after the <body> tag.
If you are not supporting NS4 any more (who is?), you can use the new menu calls...
Not trying to be a snot here, but some things just don't play nice when not put in their proper place.

Re: Problem with Oscommerce shop
Hi John,
Thanks for the comments on the google code. I corrected that.
The #div for the tooltip has also been added, makes no difference.
I used the Milonic package with the provided files for Oscommerce that I also found here.
These files load the menu from the shop's database. Installation was easy, I only had to
make a very small change, to load the menu box with "Milonic data". I have no idea how
to follow those table rules on the page you pointed me to.
The only change I made to oscommerce file (categories.php) was commenting out one line and
add a new one, according to the instructions in the downloaded package. And I commented out.
the link to milonic.com (which is okay I think, as I paid for a licence
)
//new infoBox($info_box_contents);
//echo "<a style='font-family:verdana;font-size:10px;' href='http://milonic.com/'>DHTML Menu by Milonic JavaScript</a>";
require_once(DIR_FS_CATALOG.'/milonic/oscommerce-menu.php');
If I change it back, my tooltip works just fine.
I really liked my tooltip that enlarges the images on the fly. Might there be any fundamental reason that these
two pieces of software can't work together in one page?

Re: Problem with Oscommerce shop
Ok, things are working again. I downloaded/installed the latest tooltip version and now both Milonic menu and the tooltip work happily together.
As usually, (speaking for myself!!!) it takes more stubborness than actual knowledge
Time for a beer.
Best wishes, Frank

Sorry - my fault for not checking that (I usually do).
Glad to hear it's working!
