HELLLLP! I'm pulling my hair out here.
I cannot get the arrows to show on my website - ukprom.com
and it's the same with different browsers< IE, Firefox, Opera and Safari.
I have tried all the advice given;
changing the dat file,
uploading the arrow images to my root folder,
changing the html code,
but nothing works.
Now, I'm new to all of this jargon, so could you please treat me as very thick and stupid with any answer.
Thanks

As you can see from my post, I am more than likely doing something very silly and simple, that's not making the arrows appear.

Karen,
Look at your menu code down at the bottom of the area you are allowed to edit. You will see this line of code:
var Arrws=['/img/tri.gif',5,10,'img/tridown.gif',10,5,'img/trileft.gif',5,10]; // Arrow source, width and height
That line directs the menu to look in the folder named img and not look in the root folder. You also have two different methods of writing that code, using a leading / and NOT using the leading / which can cause problems. When I wrote that suggestion, I was writing it for people that have their images in a specific folder.
The easy solution is to edit the menu code to remove the img/ and /img/ code from that line.
Another solution is to upload the arrows to a folder named img.
Hope this helps. Bill R.

Karen,
As many pages as you have in that menu, you will want to have a single menu file that you can edit instead of changing all those pages when you have to make a change.
You can change the page(s) you have done and then as you add pages you only need to add a line of code that reads:
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu.js"></script>
Then most of the remainder of the menu code in in the menu.js file. Bill R.

I thought it was something simple
You're a star.
