need help for MultiMenu

Hi,

1.

I installed MultiMenu and choose Horizontal drop down css menu

I wanted to change the colors of the menu but I could only do it for the main color in the css files in \multiMenu\script\08

I tried to change the color for the mouseover background and dropdown background but it freezes the menu and it refuses to work.

What should I do to change the colors ?

2. Secondly the multiMenu [horizontal dd css] creates too much empty space on top and bottom in center-center block. Which file has to be edited to change it ?

See it here in the image: http://wayband.com/image.png

TIA

hi,
in basic_dd.css, to change font/background's color (onmouseover too), you need to change values in this code :

/* set the background and foreground color of the main menuhcss li on hover */
.menuhcss ul li:hover a {
color:#fff; 
background:#b3ab79;
}

/* style the background and foreground color of the submenu links */
.menuhcss ul li:hover ul li a {
display:block; 
background:#faeec7; 
color:#000;
}

/* style the background and forground colors of the links on hover */
.menuhcss ul li:hover ul li a:hover {
background:#dfc184; 
color:#000;
}


i don't know why you have a such blank space !
I think that that comes from your theme.

i've no problem

I got the colors ok. Something was wrong with IE and I had to clear the cache in safe mode to make it work.

I am using the XOOPS default theme with some minor changes. There is no problem with the other blocks in the center. The space occurs only for the multimenu. Its not bad as it is ....anyways thanks for the help

Edited: I did need help initially but once again (after hours of struggling!) I found the answer! I had been looking in the wrong css html files...

hello,
if you like horizontal menu, you can change easily the background color for the main links.

look at the template : multimenu_dyn_horiz.html
(line 41)

li.multimenu a {
cursor:pointer;
padding: 3px 0.5em; 
margin-top: 0px; 
border: 0px outset #778; 
background: #01102d;
}


change de "background" color.

to change the background color of sublinks, look for :

#dropmenudiv<{$block.mm}> a{
width: <{$block.block_size}>px;
display: block;
text-indent: 12px;
border-bottom: 1px solid black;
padding: 4px 0;
background: url('<{$xoops_url}>/modules/multiMenu/script/images/arrow2.gif');
background-repeat: no-repeat; 
background-position: left 50%;
}


and change
background: url('<{$xoops_url}>/modules/multiMenu/script/images/arrow2.gif');


with
background: #color url('<{$xoops_url}>/modules/multiMenu/script/images/arrow2.gif');


update your template.

No, not too late. :) Thank you for your reply. It still helps!

I love the menu. It's superb.

Edited:
It seems I always find my answer after posting! I found I could enable the images option under "blocks". Sorry about the post!

Hello blueteen,

I'm enjoying using your menu but have a question. The Guide refers to images and XOOPS code but when I try to include either, they are not working as I understood they should. So, to make sure I understand...

Can I use an image in a menu that has text links? What I really would like is to use an image instead of the first menu link (in horizontal menu) but an image does not appear no matter what I try.

Thanks in advance.
