Errors with 2 menues on page...

Post by fotops »

I am trying to put 2 version 5 main menues on one page.

Works intermittently!

Sometimes, when I open the page it works, when it doesn't I hit the refresh button and it works. Hit refresh again and it may or may not work.

When a menue gives an error, it only goes bad for menu items that have a drop-down.

If I place menu #1 first in the code, it works and #2 gets intermittent.
If I place #2 first in the code, #1 gets weird.

Here is the test page: http://www.wrpmapartments.com/WRPMAprilIndex.htm

thanks for any help.

Its taking me too long to figure out how you are using the menu.

Anyway some details, remove the quotes on numerical values.

alwaysvisible="1";
followscroll="1";
orientation="horizontal";
screenposition="center: middle";

screenposition should be a semicolon center;middle

You are way down level as to your version. You are using 5.1 February 12, a no longer supported version. The newest version is 5.15 April 29th. You can go to the topic http://milonic.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3108 and check the watch this topic box, then you will get an email notice of each new release.

Although you are using two menu_data files, which I don't think you need to have [you could put all the menus in one file and just have the top menu and the bottom menu positioned as you want them making sure they are each named differently of course, and both coded as always visible] but, back to the point, even with two files you can't name menus by the same name. That is probably what is causing the problem. So, in one of those files rename Main Menu to say Main Menu 2 or something. And make sure you upgrade to the newest release, little bugs get fixed as time goes on and new fuctions get added. :)

So Simple...

I guess I was trying to make more work of it than needed.

Putting it all in one script did the trick!

thanx, fotops
