Sure, go ahead, that's why I posted it.

I've been unable to find any way to do this with milonic's code so I decided to write it myself. The following code will allow you to show multiple columns of vertical menus, using milonic's code:

Example Working Page: THE ORIGINAL PAGE PROVIDED BY CPRIEST HAS BEEN REMOVED, I created a page to show ...

Is there any solution to getting multiple-columns per menu?

cpriest

Hmm I've searched around a bit for this, couldn't find anything. Incidentely I did follow these directions when I initially setup this menu, the web pages indicate that while its touchy to do the menu like this, it does work if I follow the directions, which I've done.

Anyone else have any ...

Is there a supported way of creating a multiple-column submenu? Something like this:

Menu -\
Item 1 | Item 2
Item 3 | Item 4
Item 5 | Item 6

So on...? I know of the text=<table> way but that disables the mouseover features of the menu system which I need...

Are there any other solutions?

If you constantly shrink and expand the width of the browse window the menu keeps shrinking 1 pixel at a time. This is with IE 6.0 xpsp2, don't know about other browsers.

Yes I realize that the page.header.php file is not a complete html file, it will work for ...

It does, thank you!

Hey all, so I define a menuStyle and then use code like this:

with(milonic=new menuname("My Portfolios")){
style=menuStyle;
margin=style.margin;
style.subimage="/res/menu.arrow.right.gif";
style.subimagepadding="3";

The last two lines actually end up modifying the menuStyle object, which ...

Everything but the main menu is out of the table....

Can I load the submenu's at the end of the page w/o a problem?

cpriest

It does run pretty slow when compared to before. I had < 1 second load times before, now its 3-5 seconds to load the whole page...

Do you have any tips for speeding things up?

cpriest

I see, so is the key problem here the fact that drawMenus() is creating the menu (layers?) within that table cell? So the sub-menu's need to be created outside of the table cell..?

I've looked through the files but couldn't find an answer...

Is there any way I can indent a menu item with some property?

Update... The Horizontal Scrollbar problem is back.

Its not on the original page, but it is on another page which includes now a second menu bar...

If you play with the menus a bit, you'll notice that atleast one of the menu's changes width and ...

cpriest

I see, that would be because this is a page header and meant to be included in other more complete pages.

Normally this page does not include the <HEAD> information either, I included that only so that viewing the page on its own would show correctly.

At any rate, its all working fine now.

Hey the fix works great, there is another issue I just noticed with the new version though (may have been in the old version).

If you make the window wider and smaller over and over the menu's width keeps shrinking until it is a small as it can go to fit all of the text.

Not a huge issue I don't ...

Hey John,

I'm not really sure what you're talking about, I've been coding HTML for about 10 years and I see nothing wrong with the HTML in this page, what do you find to be a problem?

cpriest

Hello all,

I just purchased the DHTML Menu, using the latest version and I'm having a problem with the horizontal scroll bar for the main window.

The main web page scroll bar is showing and is wider than it should be. I have nothing on the page except for the menu system...

What am I doing wrong ...
