CSS Dropdown menu for the header- With Categories!

[disciple]

Quick question concerning the htaccess file. Our store is in a subdirectory of our root and I do not have an htaccess file in the store's root directory. Do I need to add one with the additions you have outlined for the htaccess or do I put those in my site's root htaccess file?

Thanks

Actually, it looks like the issue may be a result of my customized header. When I install the header with the download there is no issue. I'll have to look at my header to try and see what it's missing. I won't lie it's my heavily modified, so that's the problem.

I would think in the store's root, since the header menu is for the store, and the .htaccess is for the menu.

Ha!...Seems that I stepped in some poo here. ...
Sorry for fanning the flames. Completely unintentional. I will now quietly go back to my seat and install version 1.1 and mind my own business.

Oh you didn't do anything. And didn't mean to direct heat your way or offend ya. Just trying to motivate toolatesmart into uploading his mod version under a new name and create a new support thread. I now know that he is new here and probably just didn't understand the implications/confusion that could arise. (but it's easy for me to sit here and forecast the impending confusion as I've already seen it occur with a number of mod projects). Anyway I really like what toolatesmart did with his version, adding the second line for categories. For some folks that will be right up their ally and others will probably prefer Jade's version. There is no competition here. Matter of fact I just took on a project that toolatesmart's version would be very useful. I just hope I didn't scare him off. Didn't mean to. Sorry.

Gday guys.

First, thx for this great mod, it keeps me getting closer to a nice looking frontend.

Second - I experience somehow 2 problems:

First, the header bar is a few pixels too long (on the right side) - I tried to play around in the stylesheet of the header, no success...

Second, after changing the z-values in the stylesheet lightbox, I now have the actual lightbox "over" the header, but the header does still not "gray out"... (I tried the proposed coding solution in header_php, but I do not want the header to disappear but only to "gray out"....

any help is needed and greatly appreciated

.. I forgot to say that with the gray-overlay, a possible "hoving over" over the header bar should be impossible as well... (I think Woody had the same idea a few posts ago)....
again... thx //heaps ;) for help...

Have you tried the solution here:

I guess that's what you were referring to.

I had also mentioned adjusted z-index's for someone else, and I remember getting the header menu grayed out as well.

Did you try changing this zen index as I mentioned in post #49:
"No, I wouldn't know how to "completely" hide it, but changing #overlay's z-index to 1000 will help hide it like the rest of the site."

The suggestion by shackle solved my issue. http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpo...3&postcount=50

AND AGAIN! - WOW - what a community! Great guys....

the z-index of the overlay to 1000 did it... I had it @900 i guess... so thx for that... to your post woody: I tried that already before my post but all it did was remove the bar completely when the lightbox was "in action" . Is this the codes aim?

To the first problem (the bar is about 20px to long and goes over my customized milhuna template).. you can see it in the screenshot on the right side... can you help as well???
ps: I tried to change the "width" in the stylesheet but it did not show the desired effect.

Thx for this greatly appreciated help!

Yes indeed.
