Menu, CSS, Droplet; childeren not showing CSS in menu properly

[BartAaldering]

Hi all,

i'm having some troubles with the CSS of my menu (childeren menu), used as a droplet. I'm not shure what is causing this problem.

- The menu works fine, in the top-level pages,
- In the childern menu:

 The menu-expand, menu first is applied to the first two links, then two links with no CSS-class at all for some reason, and the last one has menu-last

I can't figure out why there is no CSS-class for those links.

Example is viewable on

can you post your show_menu-Code from the Template index.php?

[BartAaldering]

here's my showmenu in the index.php, wich is working fine, as long as i'm in the parent level.

show_menu2(0, SM2_ROOT, SM2_START, SM2_ALL, '<font color="#FFFFFF">  |  [ac][menu_title]</a>', '', '', '', '[ac][menu_title]</a>')

the problem comes up after clicking a link in the menu ( in the droplet i made):

ob_start();
show_menu2(0, SM2_CURR+1, SM2_ALL, SM2_ALL|SM2_CURRTREE);
$content = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $content.' ';

here's my showmenu in the index.php, wich is working fine, as long as i'm in the parent level.

show_menu2(0, SM2_ROOT, SM2_START, SM2_ALL, '<font color="#FFFFFF">  |  [ac][menu_title]</a>', '', '', '', '[ac][menu_title]</a>')

dont forget the closed font-Tag (</font>( behind the |
like

Code: [Select]

show_menu2(0, SM2_ROOT, SM2_START, SM2_ALL, '<font color="#FFFFFF">  |</font> [ac][menu_title]</a>', '', '', '', '[ac][menu_title]</a>');

ob_start();
show_menu2(0, SM2_CURR+1, SM2_ALL, SM2_ALL|SM2_CURRTREE);
$content = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $content.' ';

try to use this code for using the extra show_menu2-parameters like

Code: [Select]

ob_start();
show_menu2(0, SM2_CURR+1, SM2_ALL, SM2_ALL|SM2_CURRTREE, '<a href="[url]" class="[class]">[menu_title]</a>', '', '', '');)
$content = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $content.' ';
or

Code: [Select]

ob_start();
show_menu2(0, SM2_CURR+1, SM2_ALL, SM2_ALL|SM2_CURRTREE,
          '<li class="[class]"><a href="[url]" class="[class] men">[menu_title]</a>', '</li>', '<ul class="submenu>', '</ul>');
$content = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $content.' ';

the same code, a little bit shorter:

Code: [Select]

<?php

return show_menu2(0, SM2_CURR+1, SM2_ALL, SM2_ALL | SM2_CURRTREE | SM2_BUFFER, ... );

?>

thank your for your reply, but i guess the problem is not entirely clear. The normal showmenu2 is working fine, untill you are getting a level deeper:

this is the home page:



this is the submenu

[jacobi22]

thats not a menu-problem in the main-menu, only css

change your css-part from

Code: [Select]

#menu, a.menu {
        position:relative;
        width:700px;
        height:28px;
        z-index:8;
        top: 154px;
        vertical-align: bottom;
        padding-left: 5px;
        font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        font-size: 15px;
        color:#FFFFFF;
        }
to

Code: [Select]

#menu a {
        position:relative;
        width:700px;
        height:28px;
        z-index:8;
        top: 154px;
        vertical-align: bottom;
        padding-left: 5px;
        font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        font-size: 15px;
        color:#FFFFFF;
        font-weight:bolder;
        text-decoration:none;
        }

that was simple, but i don't quite understand why it did work on the parent level.

thanks very much!

[jacobi22]

in parent level the show_menu2 set css-classes for all menu-points, not so in the second level, the class for 'Cursussen' and 'Openingstijden' is (was) empty
