Like my other post,

I'm having difficulties designing the page when I can't see the menu in the viewer tab. I understand that I control the placement by editing the code, BUT:

it sure would be nice to see in relation to everything else I'm writing without having to open the browser.

So: how about the menu showing up in the visual editor and view tabs...?

thanks

Have you installed Adobe Flash yet from www.adobe.com? In the visual editor, you will not be able to see Flash Objects. You would only be able to use the Preview tab.

If you still have problems, please contact our support team at www.coffeecup.com/help/myroom and we will be glad to look into this more for you.

Hi,
I have created a site base on one of your templates. Looks great but.....
Frustratingly, my pages are fine in ie7 however the layout changes in ie6 and the DHTML menu is squashed into a ball at the bottom left in Firefox. I have done a test page using only the menu which works. Following a suggestion in the forum I tried putting the menu at the top of the page but this resulted in the same isues.
Please see examples below, particularly the change in firefox.

Main url:
www.ultrasoundpaedia.com

Test with menu at top:
http://www.ultrasoundpaedia.com/USP%20t … 20top.html

Test with menu only:
http://www.ultrasoundpaedia.com/USP menu only test.html

Please help.

I am playing with the FLASH MENU BUILDER AS A NEWBIE -- here are my issues/questions:

1) I cannot get a vertical submenu to work on a root horizontal button. Can this be done? (free DHTML is nice but not "pretty" enough for my customer's taste

2) When I create a submenu, I then preview to test - when I mouseover on a root button with a submenu, the submenu will stay on the screen and not disappear when I mouseover to the next button

3) I need for a submenu to show all buttons - not just to show max buttons of root buttons.

In other words - if I had flash menu builder work like the free dhmtl menu builder with drop down button flexibility (but with button seperation done in flash menu builder).

Dreaming.....I LOVE the www.vista-button.com features but I hate their licensing restrictions.

Thanks, Cheryl Plano Wildcat Fan

Hi,

Additional to Cheryl's comment, the submenu will not appear below its rootmenu instead it will always display in the left most side of the page.

Thanks,
JR

Cheryl,

Did you know you can add buttons to the DHTML menu? You can make the buttons as "pretty" as you want and it will look as nice as the Flash menu. Bill R.

Would it be possible to have the submenu's from the vertical display slide out to the right vice expanding downward? I have attached a graphic that shows the basic idea I am trying to convey. Thanks,

Matt

Matt I think you have a better chance of using Coffeecups CSS Menu maker, it comes with the great html editor which you can try if you don't have it, or the free dhtml menu maker.....:) "It's A Smart Person That Asks"
