CSS Dropdown menu for the header- With Categories!

[Brian Flanagan]

Hi everyone,

It's been ages since I've needed to ask for help here. I (thanks to Zen Cart and this forum) successfully setup a store for my wife (w w w dot i m a g i n a r t dot c o m dot a u) which has been working great. I have now been asked to do one for someone else, which I figured wouldn't be too hard now that I've done one. Wrong! I've only just started this site and I already have an issue! You can see the site at w w w dot h o l i s t i q u e c o s m e t i c s dot c o m / s h o p

The site is very bare as I thought I'd get the module I hadn't used before working before I did anything else. The module I'm having issues with is the CSS Horizontal Drop Down Menu module - hence why I'm writing here! lol

The main headings are fine, but under Information, I wanted to add two other menus. Privacy and FAQ. As you can see there are a few issues.

I used the About Us module to add these two pages. I have used this many times on the site I did for my wife and didn't have a problem. The only difference I can see is the editing of the information.php file vs the editing of the tpl_drop_menu.php file.

The issues are...

1) The name in the drop down menu says HEADER_TITLE_X instead of just X. Where did I go wrong?

2) If you click on FAQ, the bars down the bottom vanish, yet with Privacy they don't??? Also a back button has appeared on the Privacy page which I don't want.

I'm not sure what code you need to see, but below is the includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_drop_menu.php - if you need to see any others then please let me know.

Any help would be very much appreciated.
