I recently looked at a tutorial for flash menu builder. I followed the tutorial but maybe in uploading and pasting I am doing something wrong. My menu has 10 links and only shows 4 at the moment. I created the menu, previewed it, and uploaded the necessary files to my ftp. I then went to VSD and proceeded to paste the html in, saved the document and previewed the webpage and found only 4 menu items visible and the rest was just white. I haven't uploaded the pages with the new menu as it is not working properly. Can anyone assist with this?

Hi Tony,
What I would do is remove the html box and then add the menu using the flash tool, draw another box browse to find the xml file, then you should see your complete menu in VSD. "It's A Smart Person That Asks"

I was going to say its like a css definition of the navigation section is hidding the rest because it's to small for the menu. It does on mine when I open a vertical sub menu that has more in the subs than on the mains.

What you need to do to resolve this is to have enough main links to give room for the subs to slide down and not hide themselves. So if you add two more main links to your Gallery main your subs won't have to slide down and be hidden.:) I can't hear what I'm looking at when it's so easy to overlook something I'm not looking for.

You should have an alternate navigation method if your primary menu is based on Flash. CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!
