My misunderstanding (it actually *is* 2 sites, but it's kind of an odd situation since the 2nd site's implementation is only for searching the first). Somehow it never occurred to me to just search for Atomz; I would have found this page: http://www.milonic.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3461&highl...

I only want to use v5 on one site. http://www.milonic.com/pricing.php shows the price to be $46.11. Two things that I find disappointing: - v3 had a feature which was removed for v5 beta and was then re-enabled for v5 final release. To me, this means I paid for an unfinished product. - in theory, de...

I can't justify to the client paying for an upgrade when I don't know if upgrading will solve the problem (support for the license has expired). Reconstructing the events from email archives, I bought 3 licenses in April 2002 (before there was a fixed price for usage and before there were license nu...

Menu-Calling from External Server (Atomz)

I'm trying to have the menu (it's V5, I think) display on Atomz's search results page. For an example, see: http://search.atomz.com/search/?sp-q=training&sp-a=sp1002cae8&sp-p=all&sp-f=ISO-8859-1 The main site is http://www.fluidedesign.com/index.htm I have gotten this to work with V3 of ...

Wow, it looks like I have a lot to munch on and try. Thanks very much for the time you spent looking at the problem. I'll probably end up ditching the idea, as it was only a proposal to the client. If it causes this much extra work, it's not worth the extra 2 hours dev time on an already me-lose-mon...

Paste License Number

There is a place in the code for you to paste your license number, which you should do as well.
I was going to ask the same question in my previous message.

Which file is it in?

iframe PDF z-index Mozilla vs. IE6

I'm able to get the menu items to appear over an iframe PDF document for IE6, but with Mozilla/Firebird it blows away the page title: http://www.fluidedesign.com/embedded_pdf_example2.htm The example below renders correctly in Moz/FB, but in IE6 the menu items display under the iframe: http://www.fl...

The idea I had was alt text descriptions on mousover of menu items. This seems to be obvious, but when I originally adopted the Milonic menu, this was not a feature. After posting here about the idea, someone (Kevin, you, Andy? - I forget) offered a solution that worked - see the site mentioned in m...

Thanks for the quick reply. The only concern I have is that I was here back when v4 was being developed and some suggestions I made were resolved by knowledgeable members of this forum. But I don't think these ideas were necessarily officially incorporated into v5. So, like, I'm worried about upgrad...

Experience with v3 to v5 Converter?

http://www.pipingdesign.com/ I think the above licensed site is using v3 (I was an early adopter), my question is: would using the converter to v5 break it? I have customized a bit (eg. ALT tags for menu items). By the way, I have done two other sites using the Milonic menu (both licensed, of course...

Automated Screencaps of Implemented Milonic Menus

What I think would be a brilliant utility for Milonic to offer is an automated web form that would take a provided URL, screencap it using the browser or operating system selected by the user and upload the image to a server. It would be great for those of us web designers who don't have access to t...

Re: Disability access

Also, more use of the title and alt tags, so that a description of the link, would describe what the link is, would be "read" by someone who is blind, via a screen reader. You can implement menu item descriptions already: ,"<span title='Piping design theory'>THEORY</SPAN>","...

Troubleshooter

For some unexplained reason, my Milonic menu implementation (which had been working fine for months) is now dead. Aside from going through each line of code in the menu_array.js file individually, is there any sort of automated way to check for potential problem areas? Paul http://www.pipingdesign.c...

Yikes! I'm using DSL and that page ( http://www.creations-cat-lover.com/ ) took about 45 seconds to arrive.

Nice-looking page, eh. Perhaps in the first submenu, you could list only about half of the list. You could add to that list "More Tutors", and have that open a submenu listing the rest of your list. Or, until you get a better solution, list all the names individually on the main page. This...
