Milonic JavaScript Menu

Hi Ruth,

Many thanks for your help, I've gone through your files and have it working now.

One little change I made to simplify things was to use the same top row (the one with the whitespace separator added) in all cases including the very first item - that would need a space anyway, but I cans ...

Hi Ruth,

Thanks for that.

I think I did try removing the separator and saw no difference. By separator I assume you mean this menu item:

aI("text=;itemheight=7;separatorsize=1;type=disabled;separatorcolor=#000000")

If I do need it (and I may) perhaps I'd need a dummy menu item of some sorts ...

Hi Ruth,

Many thanks for your helpful (as always) reply and if you don't mind I will take up your kind offer of help.

I think I understand how your example works, but I'm stuck on the very first step - the 'divides' property, I see how it works with a horz menu (played with values other than 2 ...

Hi,

I have a site where the client will have control of page names, so in some cases the page name/menu text will need to wrap to fit into the width allocated for the menu. I'd like to use background images with rounded corners - problem is on the menu items that wrap, the background image tiles ...

Thanks Ruth,

I'll give it a go and see how I get on.

Hi,

I have two CMS sites, each with about 2,500 pages in them, and can see that growing to maybe 4/5 k pages.

The max depth of the pages is 5 (ie main menu > sub menu > sub menu > sub menu > sub menu).

The menu would be used on the site admin, so each menu item would contain form controls (such ...

Thanks Ruth,

That fixed it, I used the transparent image option to pad out the items without sub menus.

Hi,

I have vertical main menu with menu items right aligned. On the main menu items which have sub menus, the sub menu arrow image is causing that menu item to be pushed left a bit, thus my main menu is not neatly aligned, see http://www.solomon.ie/milonic/index.html (Accommodation menu item)

I am ...

Hi Ruth,

Many thanks for your help, it worked fine.

However, padding=5px 15px 5px 15px"; didnt work, I had to replace the = with : ,ie padding:5px etc.

Thanks,
KEvin

Hi,

I have padding=5; defined in my style but what I want to do is have, say 5 px above and below the text but 15 to the left of it.

I tried padding =15,5,5,5; and padding 15 5 5 5; (with and without adding px) but just cant get it to work

Looking at http://www.solomon.ie/test/ what I want to do ...

Hi Andy,

Thanks for that, it seems to work perfectly!

Hi, I have my menu on the LHS column of my page and want to place HTML content and images below where the menu ends.

The problem is that the main menu,always being visible, hides content "behind" it, see http://www.solomon.ie/test/

To overcome this problem in the past I placed a transparent GIF ...

Hi Kevin,

Yes, I want both. Is it possible?

I thought of a workaround - for menus with no sub menus use a different version of the icon, one that has a transparent border on the RHS equal to the width of the arrow grapics. However, this would require extra coding in my PHP script that generates ...

Hi,

I have a menu http://www.solomon.ie/test/ and what I want to do is display an icon image at the end of some of the menu items.

The code i'm using is :

aI("text=  Link C;image=design/key_icon3.gif;imageposition=right;imagealign='right';imagepadding=5;url=#;showmenu=second_menu ...

Ruth,

Many thanks! I understand how it all works now and and it even matches the whole meny tree from a submenu backwards, which was going to be my next question!

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi,

I'm trying to get pagematch to work with no success.

Firstly, I assume what it's supposed to do is set the menu item to the onbgcolor when on the URL defined in pagematch?

Given the style and the three menu items below, sould I expect to see "Civils Report" highlighted when I'm at www.mysite ...

Thanks Kevin,

I didnt see that anywhere in the docs.

Hi, I want to put my menu over an image and want to be able to see the image through the menu, in the mouse off condition, but when I mouse over the menu I want each menu item to change to a solid color.

If I define a style with no offbgcolor it works fine - I see the image and when I mouse over an ...
