I'm plugging my way through the version 5 menu pages as I set up my menu (which I had working beautifully in ver 3), and am stumped as to why the pagebgcolor and pagecolor properties are not working with my menu. I checked through the forum archives to see if someone else has had and solved this problem, and the closest query I could find was with ver 3 - the solution was to use absolute instead of relative urls in the menu. I tried that and still no luck in having the menu item change color when the page is viewed. Here a snippet of my code, if someone would be so kind (yet again) to troubleshoot:
with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
onbgcolor="#779577";
oncolor="#ffffff";
offbgcolor="#ffffff";
offcolor="#330000";
bordercolor="#330000";
borderstyle="solid";
borderwidth=1;
separatorcolor="#330000";
separatorsize="1";
padding=3;
fontsize="10";
fontweight="bold";
fontstyle="normal";
fontfamily="Verdana, Arial";
pagecolor="white";
pagebgcolor="#779577";
headercolor="#ffffff";
headerbgcolor="#779577";
subimage="arrow.gif";
subimagepadding="2";
overfilter="Fade(duration=0.2);Alpha(opacity=90);Shadow(color='#777777', Direction=135, Strength=5)";
outfilter="randomdissolve(duration=0.3)";
}
problems with pagecolor and pagebgcolor properties
I've tried both absolute and relative...
I tried both url and page links - neither seem to work. Here is the full script:
with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
onbgcolor="#779577";
oncolor="#ffffff";
offbgcolor="#ffffff";
offcolor="#330000";
bordercolor="#330000";
borderstyle="solid";
borderwidth=1;
separatorcolor="#330000";
separatorsize="1";
padding=3;
fontsize="10";
fontweight="bold";
fontstyle="normal";
fontfamily="Verdana, Arial";
pagecolor="white";
pagebgcolor="#779577";
headercolor="#ffffff";
headerbgcolor="#779577";
subimage="arrow.gif";
subimagepadding="2";
overfilter="Fade(duration=0.2);Alpha(opacity=90);Shadow(color='#777777', Direction=135, Strength=5)";
outfilter="randomdissolve(duration=0.3)";
}
