CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,

I have used text embellisher to create graphics in menu by
changing menu manager template code (simple_navigation.tpl) from

{$node->menutext}

to

{cms_module module="TruetypeText" style="menu-cccccc" text=$node->menutext}

with a different style for each colour.

Can I make this perform a rollover?

I have been asked to take a standard HTML site and create a CMS.

Thanks for your help

Hi, did you manage to get the rollovers working? If so, care to share how you did it?

I have almost solved this problem.

Install the Text Embellisher module.
Load fonts etc

You then need to modify the minimal_menu.tpl in the Menu Manager using the smarty tag from Text Embellisher. I have marked the changes below in Bold.
This show current page in one color and all other in a second color.  But does not rollover.  To make it rollover I think will need another {elseif} statement but my PHP is rubbish...

I hope this helps

{foreach from=$nodelist item=node}

{repeat string="" times=$node->depth-$node->prevdepth}

{repeat string="" times=$node->prevdepth-$node->depth}

url}" class="activeparent"{if $node->target ne ""} {$node->menutext}

{elseif $node->type == 'sectionheader'}
{$node->menutext}

{elseif $node->type == 'separator'}


{else}
url}"{if $node->target ne ""} target="{$node->target}"{/if}> {cms_module module="TruetypeText" style="menu-cccccc" text=$node->menutext}

{/if}

{/foreach}

{repeat string="" times=$node->depth-1}

{/if}

I've played with it a bit a while ago, but I gave up as it wasn't critical.

Rollovers rely on javascript. So what needs to happen when accessing a page is to output a list of all images for the javascript mouseover menu items (using the foreach loop in simple_navigation.tpl). 

For example this should be the output as part of the mouseover javascript:
After that you need to add the javascript mouseover code to the image links. That's where I stopped. This requires modification of a file in the module.

There might be an easier way of doing it.
