Menu madness. HELP please

Post by burlington »

Hello

I am new to CMS work.

I have created a template, using a fluid column design I have used in HTML. I have 2 horizontal divs (for the banner and menu), then 3 columns divs for content etc, then a footer.

They work fine BUT I cannot for the life of me add a horizontal menu to the menu div. When at last I do succeed, and even though the menu is called within the div tags, it mucks up the layout completely.

Is there an easy way to do this pelase? I have spent all day on it and got nowhere.

Thanks

Martin

What did you use for a {menu} tag?...

This will determine the way it outputs the ul li and the IDs and classes, if you need them to be a certain way you will need to make a new menu template, take one, second tab in menu manager, that may be close to what you want and change it to conform to your desired output, or change your CSS...

Thanks Mark

I have actually solved the problem now by using the 'wire frame' template menu plus the BMenu module plus the accessibilty & XBrowser tools stylesheet.

It all works fine now. Thank you for your time.

What I should have said is that I got it to work. Either by luck or by increasing knowledge I don't know but work it certainly does.

What Mark refers to is that you should append "[solved]" to the first (initial) post of this topic, in order to tell others the problem is solved and not to bother reading this, or to inform others who have the same problem that this topic may have a solution they're searching for. It's really useful in forums.

Not to mention it's marked sticky in this forum.
