CSS Dropdown menu for the header- With Categories!

[jettrue]

I've loaded CSS Flyout Header 1.5 onto my 1.3.8 a test site.

It all works, but my nav bar wrapper has gone to a blank or white background instead of the tile.gif that I've set in my stylesheet. I double checked stylesheet and there are no changes so something must be over riding it (?)

If I comment out the entire area between bef and eof navigation in common/tpl_header.php it removes the nav bar completely, although it does return the tile.gif backround.

I'm trying to get the nav bar to look like my live site 1.3.7 www dot soxophoneplayer dot com

I don't care so much if I lose the home and login links but don't want to lose the search box nor the tile.gif background.

thanks...

I'll need to see the actual site. In what folder did you put the tile.gif?

tile_back.gif is in includes/templates/classic/images/

I 'might' have solved problem. Winmerge of tpl_header from flyout mod vs 1.3.8a had two </div> more in the former, near the eof navigation code. (I don't understand php even a tiny little bit, but I removed those two div bits and my entire main page turned into one humongous tile_back.gif. Oops.

So I put one of the two </div> s back and that seems to have corrected the problem, on the face of it anyway.

I've been trying to do all this dinking around on my 1.3.8 test site (local server) before upgrading 1.3.7 livesite.

I'm in process now of testing test site to make sure I didn't create 6 more problems by trying to fix one!

Thanks for this add on...I think I can improve the look of my site www dot soxophoneplayer dot com.

All opinions are welcome ;o)

CSS Flyout header with Multilanguage EZ-Pages

I installed flyout header on 1.3.8; all working. Then I added French Language Pack - still working. Added copy of headermenu,php to langages/french/extra_definitions/my template. Still working.

Then, I added Multilanguage EZ-Page mod.

When I add the french translation to the EZ-Page, with no changes all all in page title or config, the title disappears off the flyout header. In place of the missing title there is a blank bar, about half the height of the other titles in the menu.

And if you click that blank bar, the EZ-Page indeed appears correctly. So the page is there and the link is there, even though it is invisible.

This is all on test site w local server so can't show.

Hey Jade, just got around to installing your menu mod. GREAT! Took me about an hour to figure out how to turn off the *Home * Login, but I finally figured it out and have it working. Looks great and works great. Thanks for all the time you've spent on this.

You can see it here, note store is not yet active.

Exactly. If it weren't for IE, this thread would be less than half as long.

And now we have IE8 to deal with. Wish MS could just get it right for ounce.

Vanishing file. I installed CSS Dropdown Menu on my test site; tweaked; ftp's to live site. Then...I did some patch installing on test site and then to live site. I made a boo boo when I installed an older html_output.php patch over top of a newer one, which froze up my admin configs. Dr Btye helped me get that sorted and fixed.

Then today the dropdown menu on my test site went wonky, while the live site was/is working properly.

Long story short, somewhere in all that, the little wee file includes/csshover.htc vanished from the test site (it must have been there, else it wouldn't have been copied to the live site).

It was a long day before I actually went through and inventoried the files in the the mod to see if they were in fact present!

Maybe I can save someone else a few hours of hair pulling to suggest 'count the files' ;o)

Hi Jade,
This is a great mod. Thanks!
I used the about us page mod with it. But isn't it possible to use this with more languages? I copied all the english language files and changed them accordingly, but it isn't working right. I see that there is only 1 information.php and that is why it isn't working right.
Is there somebody that knows how to get more pages with this about us page mod?
I searched for a thread about the about-us page mod, but I couldnot find any,l so that is why I put it here.

To be clear, I have created a page under the Home link. I added the link to the tpl.drop_menu.php. But I can only add 1 link, the dutch link or the english link.
That is why I only see it right in 1 language.
But what is the solution?
