Menu Help

Post by turch2009 »

I need help developing a custom navigation for my site.

There are three different navigation areas.  The top nav has just four options.  These will have images for buttons.

The bottom nav will have images for buttons as well, but there will be 5 of them.

Last the thrid Nav will be int he footer (terms and conditions, privacy policy, etc).  Thsi is just text.

I'm very good with CSS, and I've worked in actionScript which is close to the scripting for the menus.  I'm having difficulty understanding how to limit my menus to certain pages.  For instance, if i want the top nav to have the first four pages, what do I do?

Try the bMenu menu styler module (easily create menus with pictures and other styling)

Read help for Menu Manager (how to show specific items and hide others)

Thanks Replytomk3.

I was hoping someone could simply give me the script for limiting the pages on the menu manager.  I'll look into bmenu while I wait on a response though.

Thanks

That's perfect.  Thanks.  That did the job of separating which pages i wanted to show.  Now all i need to do is figure out how to have different images per link for the buttons.  Below the article you gave are a few links that might help me.  I'll look there in case you don't have a specific resource.

Thanks again.

nope, looks like all of these examples are about stylizing the text given in the list universally.  Any ideas on how I can have a different image per button?  For instance, if i have a box1.jpg for home and a box2.jpg for about us.  How do I attach these images to the individual buttons?

If you want image menu you can use the page image tag...
