Milonic menu and Mysql

[Roadkingrob]

I'm trying to use the Mysql as listed in the Extra Folder. but somehow I don't get the menu working. The data is in the Mysql database and it is accessable but I dont have a menu. Which files do I need and were do I put them to make it work. What do I put in my HTML page to make it work so that the menu information is read from the MySql database file.
I dont have a url available becaus i dont have it working yet
I need some help here

Thanks so far

I checked the source and it looks to me the file uses the two menu files mmenuns4 and mmenudom to create the menus. I downloaden the php_mysql_datamenus.zip and put them in : http://www.bridge-chapter.nl/newweb/ . It connects propperly (after modification ofcourse) but no menu visible. The file (or PHP code)I need for this is not include in the ZIP file.
Most likely I'm doing something wrong but I haven't a clue what

Any suggestions

I don't know anything about php or mysql. The call for the menu files should be

Code: Select all

<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/milonic_src.js" type="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>	
<script	language="JavaScript">

if(ns4)_d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=http://www.yourwebsite.com/mmenuns4.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");		
  else _d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=http://www.yourwebsite.com/mmenudom.js><\/scr"+"ipt>"); 
</script>

where yourwebsite.com is the url for your own website. You need to have the 3 program files on the site and you need to call them, it is those files which 'read' the data file and put the menu on the page.

The code that Ruth descibes above should be:

Code: Select all

<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="http://www.bridge-chapter.nl/newweb/milonic_src.js" type="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>	
<script	language="JavaScript">

if(ns4)_d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=http://www.bridge-chapter.nl/newweb/mmenuns4.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");		
  else _d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=http://www.bridge-chapter.nl/newweb/mmenudom.js><\/scr"+"ipt>"); 
</script>

This shows the menu but the data is read from the menu file en not my MySql database. I slowly getting there using the PHP files for MySql in EXTRAS but Im not there yet.

I cannot find a step by step description on which file to use and which files not, which to edit etc.

The code that Ruth descibes above should be:

Code: Select all

<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="http://www.bridge-chapter.nl/newweb/milonic_src.js" type="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>	
<script	language="JavaScript">

if(ns4)_d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=http://www.bridge-chapter.nl/newweb/mmenuns4.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");		
  else _d.write("<scr"+"ipt language=JavaScript src=http://www.bridge-chapter.nl/newweb/mmenudom.js><\/scr"+"ipt>"); 
</script>

Thanks for solving the PHP MYSQL problem I encountered. It now works very wel. Now I would like to chapnge the position of the menu. I added the "align" option in mysql table mm_styles and entered center to change the position. that does not work. I tried the example menu "offset" but then the MYSQL menu table is not read.

Olease advise

sincerely

Hi,

Align is to align the text in the items. Screenposition is for positioning the menu. Take a look at the Menu Properties Quick Reference Guide screenpostion for more information.
