Hi,

I've been using VSD to build my first website and it worked pretty good. Now I wan't to rebuild it in pure HTML. I've made what is going to be the basic design for my site, but I'm not content with the menu...

Two versions:
My old DHMTL menu (the one that I used in my 'old' website. Pro: it looks nice and it moves down when you scroll down, I like that. Con: it doesn't stay within the container.

A newly build CSS menu. Pro: it's where it's supposed to be and I've got some extra control where it comes to borders and stuff. Con: the fixed with does work for the sub, but not for the main menu???? It doesn't move with scrolling.

I've got the whole thing here: http://www.xs4all.nl/~pncvisie/under_radar/
Index1 has the DHTML menu, Index2 the CSS menu. The links don't work yet!

Anyone any suggestions how I can get a menu at the right place, with the right width, that moves up and down with scrolling?

Many thanks,

Harriet

Tried to look at your site, but was only able to check out "Index2" -- got a 403 Forbidden message for Index1...

Hi,

Thanks for taking the trouble! I changed the name to Index and now it does work.

Ah -- that's better! Now I understand what you're looking to do...

Unfortunately, can't put any time into it right now, as we're headed out for the evening. Hope somebody comes along to help!

I am not sure what you mean by "scrolling". The menu currently moves with the page as you scroll. Did you want it fixed so it wouldn't do that?

Your css menu has its width set to 10em in superfish-vertical.css.

Also, your characters aren't rendering correctly. You have this:


Use this instead:

The menu in the Index2 files does move and that's what I want. But I don't know how to get it at the right place... (nicely centered in the left column). The css menu in de Index file is at the right place, but has an issue with the width and it does not move.

I've tried to adjust the width (to 20em?/230px); nothing happens...
I changed the character-set, but don't see anything different. I used one of CC's standard lay-outs as a starting point and that's where the utf-8 comes from. Why would CC put the wrong character-set there????

Hi,

Scanning every possible forum-article about dhtml and the html editor I found the solution to the placement issue - something to do with 'span'. No clue how it works, but it does!
