I have installed the menu and it works great in Firefox, in internet explorer compatability mode the links are cut off - ie not visible when it reaches centre column - i have tried playing around with z - index's but cant get it to work....

Any help appreciated - thanks.
Your site is working fine...? I viewed in IE8, Firefox and Chrome and everythings ok.
Yes it is sorry,
I just fixed it by moving the code in the tpl_header file...Thanks.
Thank you first trading that code you gave me for the stylesheet fixed the problem.
Now I have to go through and check all the addon files :(

Hello, Is there a way to have this mod show a subcategory (dynamically )as top title instead of just the 'categories' with all subcategories as a submenu? I would gather have my top categories horizontally displayed with their subcategories dropping under each.
I'll keep searching through this thread for answers, but if someone could point me to the answer faster that would be awesome.
I used the below code and it is working. I'm wondering how to take out 'Categories" from the menu though, and just have the top categories in my menu?
Code:<?php
class zen_categories_ul_generator {
var $root_category_id = 0,
$max_level = 6,
$data = array(),
$root_start_string = '',
$root_end_string = '',
$parent_start_string = '',
$parent_end_string = '',
$parent_group_start_string = '<ul%s>',
$parent_group_end_string = '</ul>',
$child_start_string = '<li%s>',
$child_end_string = '</li>',
$spacer_string = '
',
$spacer_multiplier = 1;
var $document_types_list = ' (3) ';// acceptable format example: ' (3, 4, 9, 22, 18) '
function zen_categories_ul_generator($load_from_database = true)
{
global $languages_id, $db;
$this->data = array();
$categories_query = "select c.categories_id, cd.categories_name, c.parent_id
from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES . " c, " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " cd
where c.categories_id = cd.categories_id
and c.categories_status=1 " .
" and cd.language_id = '" . (int)$_SESSION['languages_id'] . "' " .
" order by c.parent_id, c.sort_order, cd.categories_name";
$categories = $db->Execute($categories_query);
while (!$categories->EOF) {
$this->data[$categories->fields['parent_id']][$categories->fields['categories_id']] = array('name' => $categories->fields['categories_name'], 'count' => 0);
$categories->MoveNext();
}
}
function buildBranch($parent_id, $level = 1, $submenu=false) {
if ($parent_id != '0') {
$result = sprintf($this->parent_group_start_string, ($submenu==true) ? ' class="level'. ($level) . '"' : '' );
}
if (($this->data[$parent_id])) {
foreach($this->data[$parent_id] as $category_id => $category) {
$category_link = $category_id;
if (($this->data[$category_id])) {
$result .= sprintf($this->child_start_string, ($submenu==true) ? ' class="submenu"' : '');
} else {
if (($this->data[$category_id]) && ($submenu==false)) {
$result .= sprintf($this->parent_group_start_string, ($submenu==true) ? ' class="level'. ($level+1) . '"' : '');
$result .= sprintf($this->child_start_string, ($submenu==true) ? ' class="submenu"' : '');
} else {
$result .= sprintf($this->child_start_string, '');
}
}
if ($level == 0) {
$result .= $this->root_start_string;
}
$result .= str_repeat($this->spacer_string, $this->spacer_multiplier * $level) . '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'cPath=' . $category_link) . '">';
$result .= $category['name'];
$result .= '</a>';
if ($level == 0) {
$result .= $this->root_end_string;
}
if (($this->data[$category_id])) {
$result .= $this->parent_end_string;
}
if (($this->data[$category_id]) && (($this->max_level == '0') || ($this->max_level > $level+1))) {
$result .= $this->buildBranch($category_id, $level+1, $submenu);
}
$result .= $this->child_end_string;
}
}
if ($level > 0) {
$result .= $this->parent_group_end_string;
}
return $result;
}
function buildTree($submenu=false)
{
return $this->buildBranch($this->root_category_id, '', $submenu);
}
}
?>
see above for code for my modifiedcategories_ul_generator.php file.
The 'categories' tab in the navigation bar just goes to the site tree when clicked, which i don't want people to go to and it looks ugly. Is there a way to take out 'categories' and just leave the top categories in the navigation bar?
I figured it out. The 'categories' tab was created in the navigation bar by the tpl_drop_menu.php file in the common folder. I just deleted it out, and now the drop down navigation bar works like i want it to.Quote:
