Hi

This will be the first paid one using CMS (albeit not much since they are a country community radio station).

http://www.esimplified.net/lifefmriverland

Had to use a third party menu system though as they wanted mouseover images for menu.

I have finished the layout in this test area just about and the client now will be able to add the content easily to each page at their leisure.

That is the beauty of this CMS system.

Cheers
Chris

Looks awesome.

Think it's possible to port that menu system over to CMS some how? Or is it a little too custom for a generic menu plugin?

I am no programmer - just humble designer.

Menu is a free one from

http://www.dhtmlcentral.com/projects/coolmenus/?m=10

Use it on all my sites.

I can send you the code that was required to get this working if you want.

I am going to see if client can do with the supplied dhmtl menu without the image requirement so he can add to the site when he wants.

Cheers

I think this is just what I've been looking for.

Wishy, do you reckon this could be made pluggable? Do ya, do ya? ;)

Hi

Stop press on the dhtml menu.

I have come across one issue with it just lately.

If you go the site above and do a print preview it moves the menu to the right. I have tried to find an answer through the forums at dhtmlcentral.com but no answers.

The other solution was to hide it when you go to print using a print stylesheet.

That works with IE but in netscape you can't hind the menu and so you always get the print problem.

I am presently looking for a better solution than this.

Cheers

Chris
