Hi,
Is there a way to make the menu "sticky"? I'm using a css horizontal menu with a horizontal flyout for over a year and am wondering if somebody knows how to make the menu "sticky" for 5-10 seconds.
This would realy increase the usability since when you don't move the cursor acurate, the menu gets killed.
Thanks in advance.
No, unfortunately it is not an option with a css only menu, that would be available in a javascript based menu.Quote:

I thought so (java), thanks anyway.Quote:

The best solution will be changing it to an horizontal menu with vertical flyout like the dropmenu discussed here.
A quick change didn't work since I had trouble with the submenu of the catagories with this menu. And I forgot what makes a flyout vertical... learning by doing a year ago wasn't ideal for long term ;).
Hi
I'm using this rather nice menu but have hit a problem - some of my categories go more than 5 deep - and the flyout does strange things once you are 4 subcats in - it automatically pops out all the lower subs into an unusable mess. Is there any way to extend the depth this menu supports as I guess that lvl 4 behaviour is in the code somewhere...?
Thanks for any help

Part of the issue is the length of your category names. They're trying to take up two lines, and its causing problems down the road. I would change all instances of 12em in stylesheet_header_menu to at least 13em, maybe even 13.5 or 14em.Quote:

Now, if you want to stop at a certain level, you can open up includes/classes/categories_ul_generator.php and change the value of max level to three, then it will only flyout to level three.
Great site, btw!Quote:

Hi,
Can you tell me how to make the drop down menu to the width of the my site?
I also would like to change the color to the drop down menu.
Something that will make it pop. Any color suggestions with the
code would be appreciated. :)
I don't like red or green. lol
Thanks

The color changes are simple CSS (in the stylesheet). Coordinate the colors with those you're already using on your site for the best look.Quote:

cheers!
Here's a bunch of css for you.... I started to play with it on your site, and ended up doing all the work for ya, LOL. :smartalec: Replace stylesheet_header_menu.css with everything below.Quote:

You are actually using the categories version of the drop down menu which was developed by someone else, though I don't think he started a support thread, so its fine to ask questions here.Code:body {
