Css Flyout Categories Menu troubles

[frank_lyy]

I was sure that was the answer...

php_flag register_globals off
php_flag session.use_trans_sid off

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

Suggestions:
1. Remove the two lines start with "php_flag"
2. Consult your web hosting system administrator for help.

Does anyone know if it's still possible to make this a horizontal flyout - under the header - as it was in previous versions ? I am using a clean install of 1.3.6 as this would be for a brand new template..

Thanks

Nm...

I downloaded the archived header mod and popped it in - of course I didn't use the tpl_header.php that was in it - just included the rest into my current 1.3.6 header and it worked fine. Just css tweaks now :)

Thanks!

Dear Dr. Byte,

If you are available, I have a rather silly question: How do you code the css flyout menu to NOT show "Document General" categories.

I know that the original category box will not show "Document General" cats. Can this css flyout category box not show "Document Category" as well?

In the classes/categories_ul_generator.php file, you have something like this:

  $categories_query = "select c.categories_id, cd.categories_name, c.parent_id
                       from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES . " c, " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " cd, " . TABLE_PRODUCT_TYPES_TO_CATEGORY . " ptc
                       where c.categories_id = cd.categories_id
                       and c.categories_status=1 " .
//                             "and c.categories_id = ptc.category_id " .
//                             "and ptc.category_id = cd.categories_id " .
//                             "and ptc.product_type_id not in  " . $this->document_types_list . "
                       " and cd.language_id = '" . (int)$_SESSION['languages_id'] . "'
                         order by c.parent_id, c.sort_order, cd.categories_name";

The three lines that are commented starting with // were causing problems for some folks; however, if you uncomment those three lines, it should skip the items that normally appear in the documents category box.

How do I add a left border or margin to my categories box? I want it to look like the Information Box below it. I am using the CSS Flyout contribution.

P.S. Please disregard the colors on the site for now. I am just trying to get the layout correct then I will color it all in later.

Never mind.. I figured it out.

Perhaps an explanation of what you did would be helpful?

Hello everyone, just wanted to say that I tried everything to get the flyout working for IE 6 (and I mean everything).... finally I just upgraded to IE 7.0 and guess what... it works perfectly (of coarse)... so instead of trying to get it to work with IE 6 we just made a little notice at the top of our pages that says something like "this site is best viewed with Firefox or Internet Explorer 7.0, if you are having trouble with the site please upgrade your browser... "

BTW, all the fixes in here worked for me except for the www redirect thing in the htaccess... when I installed that it took all of the formatting out of the site (made the whole site a text format) in both Firefox and IE6 for some reason... ???

I think the biggest help was removing the "float" and upping the px ....

If anyone comes up with something better than the .htaccess thing for IE6 that would be great. :) In the meantime I'm going to give this one a rest.
