I have built a working horizontal menu using the CSS Menu designer. It works properly when I view it in both IE8 & Crome using the test browser. However, when I upload the page to my server, the menu is in a vertical position as a list. Wot's up? Thanks

The menu maker also generates a stylesheet which needs to be used with your page, otherwise the menu will just look like an unordered list.

I thought something was missing. Where would I find the stylesheet? Thanks, Cary

Where oh where is the stylesheet? What do I do with it once I;ve located it? Seems like this step should definately had been part of the menu instructions. Remember guys, you gotta shoot low,. some of us are riding the Shetlands! :)

I just created a menu and it created a "css" folder in the same location as the html.

This line was also added to the head section of the html:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/menu-menu.css" media="screen">


Your code may look different, but the above code tells me I need to use the "menu-menu.css" style sheet in the newly created css forlder, and that folder and that style sheet need to be uploaded to the same location as the html.

In my case there were also a couple other stylesheets in that css folder, but they weren't being used since there was no link to them in the head of the html. There was a "js" folder created as well, but again in my case they are not linked to in the head section of the html, so I don't need to upload that folder.

Finally, if things still don't look right with the css uploaded, an "images" folder was created as well. Make sure you upload that to your server as well, into the same location as the html with the menu.

So, basically, the menu creator created 3 folders, css, js and images. In my case I only need the css folder and one of it style sheets.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/frontpagemenu-menu.css" media="screen">

You should probably contact CC's support. They have a link at the top of the page.

Well, thanks for your help, but they told me it was a coding prob and sent me back here! LOL I redid the menu and it now has the same problem under a new name: "main_menu-menu. " <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/main_menu-menu.css" media="screen">

I'll attach the files in case someone out there has insomnia tonight. Thanks again!
