No problem, enough people have helped me along the way so its nice to give back.

I'll keep an eye on your site.

Don't forget to back the files up before hand.

Another question, how do I change the color to be my title_back?

One of the files you copy accross is called stylesheet_header_menu.css

Find the following block of code and replace the image (tile_back.gif) with whatever image you want. In your case it will be whatever you have called the blue image on your site.

div#dropMenu ul.level1 {
width:100%;
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
background-image: url(../images/tile_back.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
padding: 0px;
z-index:10000;
float:left;
}

Perfect, that where I thought it should go, just forgot how to point to the image. I tried it on my home server first now I will upload everything to my server.

It looks like it removes alot from the main page.

When I completed everything, only the very top bar, logo banner and the dop-down are left on the main page. Can not scroll down, middle boxes are gone, etc.

Hi, that looks great. Did you want those centre boxes back...? i think it looks good as is but if you want them back we can get them back.

It changes the header and all you would have to do is open up both files and merge them. Sometimes its not quite that simple but its very do-able.

Would you like the drop down menu's to have the same width as the menu title...? If so see post 1781.

Has anyone else gotten pretty much a blank age when using the css drop down. All I get is the top bar which has the login - etc., my header, and another bar that has the categories and everything else, then my page is blank there is no scrolling and everything else I have done comes u missing.

Screen shot of what it should look like:

The files for both mods don't cross into the others files so its deff not the center boxes mod.

Have you placed all of the files for the drop down menu into the correct files on your site because it sounds to me like its trying to call files that it can't find. i.e. they are in the wrong place.

Do you have a live link with the drop down installed.
