properties not working....!!!!

[gjensen]

Below are my properties for the menu displayed at:
http://www.ihets.org/coverpage2005/index8.html

I need to customize and can't seem to get things working.
I need you to help me sample the correct properties.

1. What is the correct property for displaying an image in the header category? NOT an arrow, an actual image to replace text. Also, if my "menu" folder needs to reside at root in order for images to work... please advise the correctness of path.

2. I need to customize the background color property for the sub-categories. I have tried several options in several places... and it does not work. Please advise.

Code: Select all

_menuCloseDelay=500;
_menuOpenDelay=150;
_subOffsetTop=2;
_subOffsetLeft=-2;

var browsername = navigator.appName;
var browser;

1. What is the correct property for displaying an image in the header category? NOT an arrow, an actual image to replace text

("image=whateverimage; is the code for showing an image in any item.

images should work from any folder as long as you make sure the path to them is correct in the menu_data.js file. I can't tell you the correct path since I don't know what your directory structure is.

If you want the submenus to be a different color, you can create a new style. If it's going to be the same as the menuStyle except for the offbgcolor/onbgcolor then you can use the copyOf method to do it. Right now all the menus use style=menuStyle; so they will all have whatever colors are listed there. The easiest way if you don't have all the info on copyOf would be to copy and paste the menuStyle and then rename it subStyle or such, then change the colors and assign it to the menus you want to have that color.
