Is it possible to edit the css menu's css??

I'm deeply stumped on this.

I'm using 0.11beta2 and its all going nice. But I really would like to change the CSS of the menu.

The problem is, the option in admin->extensions->cssmenu has a little textbox with the css in it, but no obvious way to save it back to the system.

I cant find it in the filesystem, and I'm now presuming its stored in the database.

Is there something I'm missing here??? I've tried in firefox and internet explorer, and both are the same.

I would just place the css for the cssmenu directly into your template's stylesheet.

Yeah, but it still inserts the damn thing from the database. Can I hack this "feature" out somehow?

The CSS is actually stored in a file. Look in modules\CSSMenu for CSSMenuVertical.css and CSSMenuHorizontal.css.

You could rename them or clear the content.

Take a look at this topic: http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... ml#msg9922

What would be the best way to do this?

Maybe it should be possible from the admin interface of the CSSMenu to select/deselect this css?

Well in the version I'm using there is an option that displays it, by my reckoning a simple save button would do the trick perfectly.

The problem is that the web server doesn't have write permissions to this directory...

There is an architectural flaw here that I haven't quite got my finger on yet on as how to fix.
