Link Troubles/Menu Updating Troubles

Post by cinghm82 »

So i got the menu working properly, set all the links to the menu items... and it was working fine. Then i decided that i wanted to change the links in some of the menu options, as well as removing a menu option... except now none of these changes are recognized. Every time i go to edit the menu the changes are there, except none of them are recognized on the actual site... what could be wrong?

Hi,

Sounds to me like you've missed a quote or a semi-colon somewhere when you made your changes.

Check top make sure all lines end in a semi-colon and that you hvaen't missed any quotes. Let us know how it works out.

vkenk hit the nail on the head, that was exactly what was wrong... i missed one semi colon hidden at the end of a fairly long link so it was hidden on the side of the window. i have another question though, on my drop down menus, the menu title itself is always black, and i cant figure out how to change the color of the stagnant titles. for example, if i have a series of titles "main page" "info" "news" "pictures" "video" for example, all with their own submenus... how would i change the colors. I had no problem changing the submenus i just cant get the menu heads themselves to change color.

Hi,

Sorry it took so long to reply. Very busy today. It would be best if you could provide a URL to the site, or at least supply your menu_data.js code.

The main menu items are styled in the menu_data.js file, as Michael (migru) pointed out. There you would set the following variables:

ONCOLOR (when mouse is ON)
OFFCOLOR (when mouse is OFF)
ONBGCOLOR
OFFBGCOLOR

Hope this helps.

OOPS.

I forgot to add this:

Go here to find the style properties for the menu.
