CMS Made Simple Forums

Ok, I posted this before in "general help", but got no reply. I am still clueless: IE7 seems to have problem with my CMSMS site. It fails to show a vertical scrollbar if the content does not fit the window. See for example http://lilalaser.de/lila/index.php/deutsch/produkte/diodenlaser. Al...

IE7 seems to have problem with my CMSMS site. It fails to show a vertical scrollbar if the content does not fit the window. See for example http://lilalaser.de/lila/index.php/deutsch/produkte/diodenlaser . All the other browses I tried  are fine (IE5, IE6, firefox, konqueror and epiphany). Anything ...

Show us your enthusiasm for CMS made simple with your theme upload. Just uploaded my simple theme with a sticky navigation bar (see url http://lilalaser.de). It includes workarounds for the inability of IE to interprete the CSS tag 'position:fixed' correctly. I did not know how to produce  a thumbn...

Just for fun, I also checked it in Netscape 7 and Opera 7.5.  The menu behavior is now the same across all browsers. Yes, finally the menu is ok on all browsers ;D Last thing I had to do, was to change '#main' in the IE only global content to '#container'. Looking back, there wasn't much coding inv...

Time for an upgrade? The upgrade was impressively smooth  :) However, smarty still put everything between {literal} and {/literal} in a environment. Turns out, I was fooled by the WYSIWYG editor. In this case, what I saw was not what I got. The editor produced a html-ized version of the source. For...

Actually, try putting it between {literal} {/literal} tags.  Smarty won't choke then. Well, smarty does not choke, but it puts the content between the literal tags in a environment. Consquently the browser will literally print the code rather than interprete it. Maybe this is a version issue --- I ...

Looks like I have to resort to browser dependent CSS code. For the records: IE absolutely needs the tag position:absolute . So I set it to "absolute" in the main style section and reset it to "fixed" with one of the infamous browser exclusion hacks.     div#menu_vert {         f...

The left and right tags didn't help. IE seems to be confused by the  "position: fixed" tag. Looks like I have to resort to browser dependent CSS code.

Result: No change at all. IE6 still puts the menu on the bottom of the page and firefox still displays everything fine. Maybe I have to set the display elesewhere to some other value.

Ok, I asked this question before in the GeneralHelp section and got no reply at all. Maybe it was just the wrong sub forum, or is it really that hard to get  the desired menu behaviour in IE6?  Here we go again: After some tweaking I came up with a rather simple style that still suits my needs.  A v...

After some tweaking I came up with a rather simple style that still suits my needs.  A vertical CSS menu is placed on the left with a square logo attached to the top. The menu should stay in place if the content is scrolled down. I slightly modified the default theme of CMSMS to achieve the desired ...

Is this trick done with the EllNav module? My site uses the CSS-menu. (See http://lilalaser.de ) The solution is not perfect as there are no flags to click on and it cannot switch languages on the fly. But I can live with it, until multilinguality finally hits the main version of cmsms.  :) ------

I'll try to adopt your option. Done. For the record, this is what I did: Make two copies of my favorite menu template (button in Layout/Templates). Rename one 'menu_lang', the other 'menu_content'. modify the calls of the menu manager in the menu templates. In menu_lang: {cms_module module='menuman...

@tsw
Sounds good. I'll try to adopt your option.
