search button

Post by Vampss »

I noticed the nice search button inside the menu on milonic.
How is this done? It looks great!

Are you talking about the grey search button? That's just the usual button like you'd put in any form. For example

Code: Select all

<input type=submit value=search>
in a form will give you a grey search button. If you mean the layout of that search item, there is a sample of the Milonic menu available Milonic Home Menu Sample It is coded for that search but without the form. You'll need to do your own form.

If I remember correctly, you're running v3 of the menu. You'll need to move to v5 to get this functionality.

Indeed. V3 is out.

I am revamping my whole page to accomodate the V5 script.
Everything is different, and since I am not a programmer and more into design, its gona take a while :oops:

Different, yes, but no more difficult than when you first learned how to 'program' v3.

Use the many samples and Quick Ref Guides over on the main site.

John

Can I ask you a question regarding your website please : http://westcgi.west.asu.edu/sai/

I see private ms is disabled :roll: ;)

Your staff button has a scrolling function - same as the milonic demo

Is it possible to put that same scrolling function into a LEFT SIDE MENU?
Within Frames ?

Hi Vampss,
If you could give us a url to see your layout, it would be much easier to help you design it the way you want. Even if you don't have it done if you could just put up the frameset with the menu layout it would help.

You can set followscroll to make the menu scroll. There is a section of the main site with Menu Quick Reference Guides. I've got links to them below my name.

Exactly what is disabled? You've got me there. Except for the items under Edit, it's wide open.

Took me a minute to figure that out, John. I went to your site looking for something that said PM. I finally realized PM refers to the Private Message on the forum... :oops:

Hi,
May I ask why you want the side menu to scroll? You have that frame set to scrolling="no" so it's a fixed frame there isn't any place for the menu to scroll.
