Milonic JavaScript Menu

aI("text=Menu Samples;showmenu=Samples;");

I'm thinking about bagging the limited broswer text for some small graphical text so I can use a nicer font. What is the code to use a small .gif instead of the text?

(showing my ignorance here)

How does one use this code to remove items? Do I put it in a new page? If I have to ask, I probably shouldn't be thinking about using it

Good catch. Thanks Ruth!!


Dave

Thanks

Solved!

I discovered the issue:

Change this code:

with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
style=menuStyle;
top=220;
left=101;

Yes, I do have the calls in an align=left div so that the submenus would be left justified. However, even without putting the calls into the div tag, it still has alignment issues like I described in my earlier post.

It almost sounds like the CSS approach is more trouble than it's worth? I'm still ...

I can't seem to find much on the use of sound on mouseovers, excep one link that is dead (http://www.milonic.com/menu/menusample.php?sampleid=20)

Could someone post a sample of what an onfunction= and offfunction= might look like to play a file 'click.mp3' each time someone mouses over the menu ...

If I 'view source' to my page, I see that there are some .js files in the root directory. So it I then type my site (mysite.com/menu_data.js) in my browser, I instantly see all of the menu code.

Is that a big security concern? Is there a way to put the .js files in a folder and somehow deny access ...

Is it possible to leave offbgcolor="transparent" for the main menu, but then have a separate offbgcolor for the submenu?

Also, I understand that FireFox doesn't respond to the overfilter and outfilter commands? Is that correct?

I've gotten the menu to center fairly well (in FireFox) using CSS and 'auto' for right and left alignment, with a 700px width (same as the banner). However, it's still not quite right. How do I 'stretch' the nav to fit the space and have it perfectly centered ...
