Rolly, no go Joe. I tried it - zero success. When I finally got it positioned in SCCP, I uploaded it. Looked totally different in Firefox and IE, with IE at 2 screen resolutions. 3 screens, and the additional links were in three different places.

I'm just going to have to except the fact that it's NOT going to work the way I want it to with positioning. But I DO sincerely appreciate your tips. Thanks!

I just can't understand why SCCP doesn't have a section under "Pages" for "Add Your Own Links" then have those links appear right in line with the top horizontal nav menu and have those links linked to any pages you want. It can't be that friggin' difficult.

Thanks again Rolly!

Where did you place the code?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

In the Footer, just like before. Should it go somewhere else?

Try putting this in the header and leave the rest of the code in the footer.
<style type="text/css"> div#custompagelink{width:100px;height:13px;left:590px;top:200px;position:absolute;
z-index:1000;font-size: 13px;} </style>

'Fraid not Rolly. It looks GREAT in SCCP, Firefox, IE and Chrome...on MY computer. But load the page into another computer and the extra links I added are slid way to the right. I still think it has to do with screen resolution. I'm set at 1440 x 900 on a laptop with a 17" monitor. It looks fine. But looking at it from another 'puter, or using my phone browser (which a lot of people use nowadays) and it's all skrewed up. Just for grins, load it onto your setup:

What is your screen size and resolution?

I just HAVE to know that the page is going to look the same, no matter what browser, resolution, or screen size it's viewed on. And unless there is a way to guarantee that, I'm just stuck.

I sincerely do appreciate your help though. You've been GREAT through this. If'n you think of anything else, I'm game to try. I'm not going live with this store for a week or so, so I've got time to play.

Did you try relative positioning with the last suggestion?

Hi Eric, I see that you're Online Now and I have a couple of things: 1st thanks very much for offering the code for the navmenu. btw, your code on this page (http://progrower.coffeecup.com/shop/vie … groupid=43) in your select all and copy box has an error. I'm not sure where it is but it wouldn't work so I took it from your <head> section using 'view page source' and it worked. 2. I've been trying to do this with a sub-menu item fiddling with the code with no success. Could you suggest a fix? here's the code I've been trying (different versions here's my last attempt) trying to modify your code:

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script><br /><script>$(document).ready(function(){ $("#scs_navmenu").append('<li class="scs_contact_item"><div class="scs_navmenu_item_inner_wrapper"><a href="http://www.mysite.com/contact.php" class="scs_navmenu_currenpage_item"><span class="scs_navmenu_item_icon_wrapper"><span class="scs_navmenu_item_content_wrapper scs_contact">Contact</span></span></a></div></li>$(document).ready(function(){ $("#scs_navmenu").append('<li class="scs_locations_item"><div class="scs_navmenu_item_inner_wrapper"><div class="scs_navmenu_item_with_submenu"><a href="townsite.com"><span class="scs_navmenu_item_icon_wrapper"><span class="scs_navmenu_item_content_wrapper">
Town Locations
</span></span></a>$(document).ready(function(){ $("#scs_navmenu").append('<div class="scs_navsubmenu_wrapper"><div class="scs_layout_menu_vertical"><ul class="scs_navsubmenu"><li><div class="scs_navsubmenu_item_inner_wrapper"><a href="http://townsite.com" target="blank"><span class="scs_navsubmenu_item_icon_wrapper"><span class="scs_navsubmenu_item_content_wrapper">Town Site</span></span></a></div></li>'); }); </script>
Thanks, Lar
